It doesn't like your decimal point. What is it? If I copy and paste your number into the command window, it complains about the decimal point but if I type it in myself directly, it works fine. Maybe you used some sort of higher order unicode decimal point.

The decimal point is fine, but that is a lower-case L, not a one, before the decimal point.
