Thank you for the prompt reply.
Do you know why does MS-Excel give result that I expected?

Know, but I did comment on that.

Unless Windows is running in CP1250 (the Slovenian encoding on Windows),
this is not expected to work. I believe John tested in CP1252, and it
just so happens that those characters are in the same place in CP1250 and
CP1252.
I get something different in CP1250, as pasting into the script wind
FAQ 7.31 strikes again.
This is expected: you cannot do exact arithmetic on a binary computer if
some of the quantities involved are not binary fractions (e.g. 1.3)
See also the warning in ?`==`: identical() is equally inappropiate for
computed numerical quantities.
