The following script does not compile ("syntax error"):

If I copy and paste that, when I compile and run it, everthing after
"x" vanishes from the window, and do not get any answer. If I click on
the line, the text reappears. if I delete the last digit, recompile,
then retype the last digit, it compiles and runs.
The following script does not work:
-------------------------
"3.141592653589793" as number
--> error "Can't make [whatever] into a number"
Likewise, copying and pasting causes the same error as you get, but if
I type it in manually, it runs. If I copy and paste, and then remove
the last two digits it also runs, but if I then type back the last two
(or even the first of the last two) digits, I get that error.
