How is NUMBER datatype stored ?

From: <stanley.shapiro_at_wcom.com>

How many bytes are used for the NUMBER datatype ?
IBI's FOCUS is translating NUMBER as an 8-byte double precision value.
I am getting weird results, but I don't know if it's related to wrong
assumptions about the actual stored length.
