Number precision in the Double Configuration node (part 2)

[Aswin]

Hello Knimers,

when I try to enter a number into the Double configuration using “scientific” notation, for example 4e-8:

Strangely, this gets converted to 4:

It only works when I write it as 4E-8:

which gets converted to

Still, this is very confusing, as Java code understands 4e-8 perfectly well:

Same is true for the Math node:

The Constant Value Column node also has no problem understanding 4e-8:

The Table Creator node is also fine with it:
