Hyphenate "floating-point" iff it precedes a noun.
Reword to avoid nouns and hyphenation when that's easy.
Prefer "integer" to "integer number" and "is floating point"
to "is a floating point number".
Prefer "@minus{}" to "-" when it's a minus.
Be more systematic about using "@." (not ".") at end of sentence that
ends in a capital letter, and about appending "@:" after non-ends of
sentences that end in a lower case letter followed by "." followed by
whitespace. Omit unnecessary use of "@:" and "@.". Similarly for "?"
and "!". Be more consistent about putting a comma after "i.e." and
"e.g."; this is the typical American style and it's easier to code in
Texinfo.
