I wanted the test to be robust.
And equality tests on "NaN" don't work (as mentioned already).

The original test also just printed results, so it seemed to me
that converting the double to a string and testing that string was
as close as I could get to the original -- there's the ever-so-slim
possibility that the bug was not in the calculation, but in the conversion.
