I was wondering if ctrl-f for 'Ryu' would match anything. Jeroen van der Zijp, developer of the lesser known FOX Toolkit, claims to have done better than the Ryu algorithm. From his changelist [0]: > New, faster, and often more accurate floating point to string conversion. No, this is not based on Ryu paper. New method reliably generates 16 digits, and does much better rounding. I believe this [1] is his implementation in C++. See also his paper [2]. (I believe it's not peer-reviewed, but it does appear in Google Scholar.)
