real numbers, digits after the decimal point - digits of precision

the results from computation should have eleven digits after the decimal point for real numbers. (11 digits of precision) it seems reasonable.\\ instead of:

Prelude> (16.0/0.00002)**2.1
2.491661103847512e12

this is better:\\

2.49166110385e12

it should be noted that a lot of computing system uses this precision.
