Summary

0002187: Utilites class >> #floatPrecisionForDecimalPlaces: doesn't work for arguments bigger than 9

Description

It's obvious Utilites class >> #floatPrecisionForDecimalPlaces: works only for arguments between 0 and 9.

The following code (attached) should this:
<code>floatPrecisionForDecimalPlaces: places
    "Answer the floatPrecision that corresponds to the given number of decimal places"
    ^places <= 9
        ifTrue: [ #(1 0.1 0.01 0.001 0.0001 0.00001 0.000001 0.0000001 0.00000001 0.000000001) at: (places + 1) ]
        ifFalse: [ (10 raisedTo: places negated) asFloat ]

"
(0 to: 12) collect: [:i | Utilities floatPrecisionForDecimalPlaces: i]
"</code>
