The current (March 2023) official releases of jq, gojq, fq, and jaq cannot be relied upon
to preserve the literal form of numbers, and in particular they drop the
final 0 of `12.3450` when presented as a number. However, the current "master" version of jq retains
the literal form of numbers. Accordingly, both the numeric and the string forms of 12.3450 are included in the suite of test
cases, and two sets of results are presented below.
<syntaxhighlight lang=jq>

end;

elif not then 0

In lambdatalk numbers are words/strings, some operators, like "+,-,*,/,...", know what to do with words like "123".
 
A first answer could be
 
<syntaxhighlight lang="scheme">
{W.length
{S.rest
{S.replace \. by space in 12.3450}}}
-> 4
</syntaxhighlight>
 
This is a better one, if considering that ending zeroes should not be considered as decimals

Converting the fourth example to a Rat or BigRat object wouldn't help as the constructor for those classes automatically reduces the numerator and denominator to their lowest terms. BigRat would work for the fifth example but the argument would have to be passed as a string anyway so we might as well just parse the string.
