38 -- The number of entries in this table is chosen to include powers of ten
39 -- that are exactly representable with long_long_float. Assuming that on
40 -- all targets we have 53 bits of mantissa for the type, the upper bound is
41 -- given by 53/(log 5). If the scaling factor for a string is greater than
42 -- Maxpow, it can be obtained by several multiplications, which is less
43 -- efficient than with a bigger table, but avoids anomalies at end points.
