Aww .... I am dumb ... should have waited 2 days :)
Anyhow I hope that this is helpful to some of you.
Please note that grisu 2 will give you representation which will
convert into the same(!) floatingpoint number you passed in >92%
of all possible inputs.
Meaning you can round trip from string to double without loss of
bits, for very many number but not all of them, that said the
accuracy in general should be better than what a usual sprintf
would give you.
Cheers and Merry Christmas,
Stefan
