It's also completely ridiculous, with a sample size of ~10 questions, to give the success rate and probability of being well calibrated as percentages with 12 decimals. Since the uncertainty in such a small sample is on the order of several percent, just round to the nearest percentage.
It probably just computes it as a float and then prints the whole float.
(I do recognize the silliness of replying to a three-year old comment that itself is replying to a six-year old comment.)
It's not silly. I still find these newer comments useful.
And here we are one year later!
