When used to denote sections in a document as they are here, or as a fraction in actual math, there is no difference. .3 = .30 = .300 = .3000 and so on. But you knew that, right?
And .3 is NOT the same as 3, and .30 is NOT the same as 30. But you knew that too, right?

Tell everybody you’re a dumbass without saying you’re a dumbass.
This isn’t math. It’s a document outline. You use them when you create large, complicated documents where you need to quickly reference specific information.
Page xxii shows how this works. If you can read and make sense of a Table of Contents it will be very obvious that x.3 comes before x.23, where x = any given section. I hope explaining it in algebra (that’s a kind of math) helps you grasp this concept. Thank you for coming to my Ted Talk.
