Bob Ippolito added the comment: I'm sure there's some hack that would allow you to preserve the input. I would try using parse_float and have it return some object that preserves the string and will be output in precisely the same way. It may need to be a Decimal subclass. I'm traveling for the next few weeks so I won't have much of a chance to investigate myself.
