Scheme programmers don't have that problem, because Scheme is one of the few languages that does math in a sane manner. The whole inexact-by-default behavior of most languages with literals expressed as decimals is somewhat nutty.

For all the flexibility provided by Scheme's structure (shared with other lisps), the thing I wish more languages would borrow from scheme is the numerical tower, which doesn't need Lispish syntax or any of the other features of Scheme that most people object to.
