URL: https://github.com/apache/tinkerpop/pull/3331
> Limit use of FloatLiteral as step arguments in grammar
> ------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: TINKERPOP-3236
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TINKERPOP-3236
> Project: TinkerPop
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: language
> Affects Versions: 3.7.5
> Reporter: Cole Greer
> Assignee: Cole Greer
> Priority: Major
>
> There are currently 2 steps which accept FloatLiterals in the grammar as
> opposed to NumericLiterals, coin() and pagerank(). The effect of this is that
> any "integer-like" number cannot be passed to these steps in gremlin-lang
> scripts, despite them being acceptable in groovy and other languages.
> For example coin(1.0), coin(1D), and coin(1F) are all parseable, but running
> coin(1) through the grammar will throw a parsing exception.
> This constraint becomes especially problematic with gremlin-javascript in
> TinkerPop 4 as JS is unable to distinguish the numbers 1.0 and 1, and thus
> must generate scripts such as coin(1).
