Math.PI+'238462643383'+0x9ee105d433fed is sadly no better than Math.PI+'2384626433832795028841971693', and collapsing more digits in drops precision

@Arnauld Yeah, I just figured that out. You can't represent numbers larger than 2**53 as a literal.

| Sep 19, 2016 at 18:29 | comment | added | Arnauld | @QPaysTaxes - This number is 91-bit long, which is far beyond JS capacity. It could not be converted from/to hexadecimal in a single pass. | |
| Sep 19, 2016 at 18:24 | comment | added | mbomb007 | @ElementW What about close numbers? You could multiply or exponentiate to get a close number, then add the difference. | |
| Sep 19, 2016 at 18:20 | comment | added | anon | Would writing the number as hex and converting it to a string save any bytes? | |
| Sep 17, 2016 at 17:18 | comment | added | Arnauld | @ElementW - Funny that you mentioned it, because I did check that too. :) | |
| Sep 17, 2016 at 17:18 | comment | added | ElementW | Mildly interesting, but 2384626433832795028841971693 happens to be prime. | |
| Sep 17, 2016 at 15:03 | comment | added | Arnauld | @Titus - You're right. I forgot to count backslash escaping. Thanks! | |

| Sep 17, 2016 at 14:28 | comment | added | Titus | Isn´t it one byte shorter than console.log("") + 12*11 characters + 18 backslashes + 10 linebreaks? | |
