twoDigitFloat bug

Hey guys,

I'm running into something that looks like a floating point
problem,
but I'm not sure about what can be done about it.

The thing is: twoDigitFloat(568.80) returns
"568.79". Just tested
against the trunk, too.

I've created a ticket in case anyone comes with a solution:

Thanks,
Pedro

That's how floats work, 568.80 is represented internally as
(roughly)
567.7999. numberFormatter rounds though, you can use
numberFormatter("#.##")(568.80) which should give
you what you want.
