FloatArray newFrom: {0.938611557944869}.<br>
Expecting result is the entered float number, but evaluating gives - a FloatArray(0.938611567020416).<br>

Float has the following class comment: "My instances represent IEEE-754 floating-point double-precision numbers."<br>
FloatArray has the following class comment: "FloatArrays store 32bit IEEE floating point numbers."<br>
<br>
I think what you are seeing is the conversion of 64-bit floating point to 32-bit floating point. Sorry for the initial confusion about your expected result.<br>
