Hi Jürgen,
Thanks. I found more floating point reproduction issues.

The exact representation by 14⎕CR works great (as in one of the ISO CF
implementations), but both ⎕TF and ⍎⍕ fail to reproduce the exact number.
Since you last change, the )save )load does keep the exact values, and I looked
at the saved workspace file, the numbers are
146 <Ravel vid="1" cells="⁴9.4247779607693793⁴12.566370614359171"/>
147 <Ravel vid="2" cells="⁴9.4247779607693793⁴12.566370614359172"/>
185 <Symbol name="x" stack-size="1">
186 <Variable vid="2"/>
187 </Symbol>
188
189 <Symbol name="y" stack-size="1">
190 <Variable vid="1"/>
191 </Symbol>
Here, the last digit of y is 1 instead of 2, as shown in the REPL.
So it seems the routine used to format numbers has some problem with the last
digits, even if with ⎕PP=17? Or it’s just the reader has some problem?
In addition, )dump and )out still changes the floating point number, but
perhaps that is the same issue as in ⎕TF and ⍎⍕?
