I think that this is a bug in MCL
? (expt 10 1.0)
10.000000000000002
? (setf xxx (expt 10 1.0))
10.000000000000002
? (format () "~,0E" xxx)
"1.0000000000000002E+1"
?
According to Steele "~0E" should (I think) limit the output to 0 decimal places.
Am I wrong?
P.S. Thanks again for all the previous help...
