Consider this: sage: R100=RealField(100) sage: x= R100(8/3) sage: R=RealField() sage: R(x) 2.66666666666667 sage: RDF(x) 2.66666666667
The documentation says that in RealField() and RDF, numbers are represented with the same precision of 53 bits.
So, R(x) and RDF(x) should give the same result... I think..
