Anyway, here is my minifier for JavaScript numeric literals, I hope it is of use to youhttps://github.com/ferno/minify-numeric-literal …

The same is true in base 10 (i.e. `999...9` represents the same float as `1000...0` but saves a character) but by then you're using `1e21`
Handling numbers in general, not just numeric literals, has far more pitfalls and potential for optimisation

An earlier version of UglifyJS naively replaced `Infinity` with `1/0`, but that turned e.g. `x/Infinity` into `x/1/0`
-
It also replaced `NaN` with `0/0`, turning `x/NaN` (always `NaN`) into `x/0/0` (`Infinity`, `-Infinity`, `NaN`) and SAVING NO CHARACTERS
