Hi Robert, In my understanding the changes only affect the latex display, not for example the print command:
dummy = 0.60001;dummy 0.600010000000000 latex(dummy) 0.60001 print(dummy) 0.600010000000000 What do you mean by real numbers of different precisions being printed the same? dummy = RealField(8)(sqrt(2));dummy 1.4 dummy2 = RealField(16)(sqrt(2));dummy2 1.414 latex(dummy) 1.4 latex(dummy2) 1.414 This did not work before the fix. Could you give an example for something that you expect not to work after the fix?
