Having tried this strategy myself I discovered there are many pitfalls.
The following are valid floating point representation that your
abstraction will not parse:

-2.58934e+27

Covered!

I think there are also valid values like "-0.0" and "inf" that can come
from floating point numbers rendered as strings and could cause some
troubles.

Covered "inf", but not "-0.0", it will just output -0
