Overview

In Ruby, a number with a leading zero such as 023.45 or 023 does not evaluate as expected. In the case of the float 023.45, you get a syntax error. In the case of 023 the number is parsed as being in octal form and the number 19 is returned.

In Adhearsion, various strings that are entirely numeric might start with zero and that zero should be preserved when converting that string of numbers into a number. The numerical string retains the zero while still allowing it to be compared to other numbers.

[[I think this leading zero thing is only part of the reason that NumericalString exists. I’m currently writing tests for this leading zero stuff so I thought I’d dump some of my assumptions about it here in the documentation.]]
