that's not what i mean.

i mean, that when i write 12345678 (must be 100% accurate within 32bit
float with 24bit mantissa) into an array and read it from there, it's still
12345678.
but when i save that patch, close it and reload it, and i read from the
array, i get 12345700.

nothing to do with limitations of floating point number.
