Follow-up Comment #3, bug #63787 (project octave):

I agree with the general programming practice that floating point numbers
should not be compared directly to integers.  However, is this example
specifically engineered so that the calculations should result in perfect
equality?  A silly example, but "2.0 + 2.0 == 4" and I don't want to have any
tolerance on this test because even using floating point numbers this
calculation should hold exactly.
