"numbers which are integers, are in the range [-(2**53)+1, (2**53)-1], and are represented without "frac" or "exp" parts (for example as 3 not 3.0), are interoperable in the sense that implementations will agree exactly on the numeric values."

I don't get what's with the "without 'frac' or 'exp' parts" part.

I mean, don't 3, 3.0, 30e-1 or even 0.000000000000000000000000003e27 produce the same ieee754:double?

At least in JavaScript all of them are ===.

Thank you,
