in Java, this is not case.

        BigDecimal v = new BigDecimal("123.4");
        System.out.printf("%.20f\n", v); // prints 123.40000000000000000000
        System.out.printf("%.40f\n", v); // prints
123.4000000000000000000000000000000000000000

you can see that it is represented exactly. I thought it was the same with
big.Float in golang.

thanks
