Happy New Year!

I have rather large numbers (seed number, in float representation), saved with fixed precision (although that is, I guess, not the problem). Here a screenshot from the file opened with a text-editor (PSpad)

When I import the data into gretl (from a tsv) and “show” the data, the scientific format is chosen and distorts the true values

the same “view” is presented if I print the data to the log:

Because same issues do not apply for numbers with large fractions, I guess it is a problem with large integer (part) of the numbers? Is this only the visible behaviour or can it really distort the data and computations? In this case it wouldn’t matter, but in other cases it might…
