Subject: float out of range

Hi,

I am reading from a file a list of floating point numbers, some of
which are high precision.  When I read such a number, I get a float out
of range warning:

% ff = Kernel.Float("1.0e-309")
% puts ff

test.rb:3: warning: Float 1.0e-309 out of range
0.0

The number is converted to 0.0 which is fine, but I would like to get
rid of this warning within the code.

Could anyone tell me how?  Sorry if this is trivial, I am new to ruby,
and I haven't found a solution on the net (-W0 is not what I am looking
for).

Thank you

Denis
