Error when running multi variable regression from a CSV: `_check_type': NoMethodError #40

Description

I'm not really sure what's happening here. For some reason if the y value is high precision and I try to run a regression on it, I get this error. However this only works if the high precision data is in a CSV. It won't work as a number literal so it could be an issue with the CSV module itself. I should note that I'm running on Windows (8.1, 64 bit) so this might be an implementation issue.

The simplest code I can get this issue down to is as follows:

require 'statsample'
ds = Statsample::CSV.read("input.txt")
regression = Statsample::Regression.multiple(ds,'y')

And you'll need a file "input.txt" in the same directory with the following data:

x,y
1,9.629587310436753e+127
2,1.9341543147883677e+129
3,3.88485279048245e+130
