Re: str2float() issue

Hexadecimal (not octal) seems to be a special case:

:echo str2float('0x1') str2float('0xff') str2float('010') str2float('0b1')

answers

1.0 255.0 10.0 0.0

while

:echo 0x1 0xff 010 0b1

answers

1 255 8 1

Not yet sure if I'll call it a feature or a bug.

Best regards,
Tony.
