float(x) fails

[hurak]

Calling float(x), which is among the examples of usage on the front page, gives an error:

julia> x = decimal(0.2)
Decimal(0, 2, -1)

julia> float(x)
ERROR: MethodError: no method matching tryparse(::Type{AbstractFloat}, ::String)
Closest candidates are:

However, conversion to string works fine:

julia> string(x)
"0.2"

and therefore as a workaround one can use

julia> parse(Float64,string(x))
0.2

EDIT: It appears that the function float() is not defined anywhere in the Decimals.jl package (althgough it is used in the examples on the front page). Instead, obviously, number() should be used.
