However there may be use cases where a user wants to know if two fairly disparate values are within a particular range of each other: "is a -within 200% (rel_tol = 2.0) of b? In this case, the string test would never +within 200% (rel_tol = 2.0) of b? In this case, the strong test would never indicate that two values are within that range of each other if one of them is -zero. The strong case, however would use the larger (non-zero) value for the +zero. The weak case, however would use the larger (non-zero) value for the test, and thus return true if one value is zero. For example: is 0 within 200% of 10? 200% of ten is 20, so the range within 200% of ten is -10 to +30. Zero falls within that range, so it will return True.
