Description
Jsr13 adds a number of exact conversion methods which throw exceptions if any numerical information is last; e.g. fractional digits.  However, the currently phrasing is something like:

"An exception is thrown if the decimal part (if any) is non-zero."

This should be replaced with wording like

"An exception is thrown if the fractional part (if any) is nonzero."
