Why is Quickbase messing with my numbers field on import?????

I wonder if this is similar to the issue of adding 0.1 to 0.2(or other numbers) in programming. Where you think that 0.3 would be the answer but it isn't, it is 0.30000000000000004 because of the way numbers are stored as floating points and could be looked at as being very precise or lacking precision depending how you look at it. This looks to be similar to that but I assume it is a bug that it is importing in this way. It is basically showing you the floating point of the number rather than what you gave exactly, I think.
