Bug: Expression Node Input

When you enter abs() as function in the Expression Node and start filling it with 9s, after 19 entries, you receive a totally useless error message:

Node: root:9 
 Message:For input string: "9999999999999999999"

the educated are aware that this is a datasize limit, yet the error message is slop.
(Knime Nightly (5.11))

It seems not to be related to the abs() function than rather to the parsing of the input.
I can reproduce the same error message with round().
I’m using 5.8.2 LTS

Hi all,
I created the bug ticket AP-25781. This should be an easy fix. Thank you for the report!
