http://lists.squeakfoundation.org/pipermail/packages/2009-December/001939.html

Name: Kernel-nice.316
Ancestors: Kernel-ar.315

Add the ANSI float characterization methods every other Smalltalk has but Squeak.
Also add #predecessor and #successor.
These changes are already in Pharo.

Name: Kernel-nice.317
Ancestors: Kernel-nice.316

A faster successor/predecessor implementation thanks to suggestions of Paolo Bonzini and the help of #ulp (unit of least precision - that is the least significant bit of a Float).
It works well with default IEEE754 rounding mode (round to nearest even). Don't know about alternate modes, but we don't use them right now.
