resolves #453
The culprit is the rounding behaviour prevented it from overflowing, and ended up returning an
Ok
in the end. The fix is: we should not attempt to round a number before the decimal point.Having read through the code, I think there are opportunities to make
parse_str_radix_10
faster & simpler, e.g. removing the coeffArrayVec
and doing it in one pass; using 128 bit integer arithmetic etc.I wonder what is your view on this?
