You can try the same Java code on a Android device. The result will be (Android
 8.0.0):

   Math.pow(10,22)=1.0E22
   Math.pow(10,23)=9.999999999999999E22
   Math.pow(10,24)=1.0E24

I used AIDE-IDE to compile and run the Java directly on the device.

But the above is not the same test case as in my initial post. My initial post
also

tests BigInteger.pow() and BigInteger.doubleValue().
