#93: 4d-324 signals a reader error but shouldn't? --------------------+------------------------------------------------------- Reporter: rtoy | Owner: somebody Type: defect | Status: new Priority: major | Milestone: Component: Core | Version: 2014-02 Keywords: | --------------------+------------------------------------------------------- At the repl, 4d-324 throws a reader error. But the nearest float to 4d-324 is {{{least-positive-double-float}}} so we should probably return that instead of throwing an error.
But values less than {{{0.5 * least-positive-double-float}}} could be rounded to 0, but I think the reader error is still appropriate. CLHS 2.3.1.1 says exponents that are out of range should signal a reader error.

Fix ticket 93.
* Round the number to least-positive-foo-float when possible, but still throw an error if it's too small but not zero. * Update comments to mention CLHS 2.3.1.1.
