Can someone clarify whether Number is actually just a simple wrapper round a double precision floating point value?
The reason I'm asking is I'd like to know how accurately Flash can store integers. With AS3 there's a true "int" type added but in AS2 how reliable is Number at storing and retrieving integer values? The problem here, of course, is that a floating point value can't exactly represent integers (you get a lot of 1025.00000000000001 values instead of 1025). Is this a problem with Flash? If so, any solutions?
