Ok, there has been a change somewhere along the line: Yes - beginning with perl-5.30.0, perl uses C's strtod() to assign values, instead of its own (buggy) atof routine that it had previously been using. That fixed many errors in assignment - eg https://github.com/Perl/perl5/issues/8730, which had been reported in Jan 2007. Cheers, Rob
