> Simply flip the digits over the decimal point, so 0.14159 become integer 95141 This sounds similar to an interesting (and often counter-intuitive) way of writing down numbers called 'p-adic numbers' (although that terminology usually requires 'p' to be prime; in your case you'd want the '10-adic' numbers, since you're using base-10) See e.g. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/P-adic_number https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/P-adic_number (here's a video specifically about 10-adic numbers https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XXRwlo_MHnI https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XXRwlo_MHnI )
