Semitones are divided in 100. (or by definition: 1200 cents to the octave). It doesn't really matter since it could just as well be a floating point number. We'd have to use shortest distances instead of exact comparisons.
Sorry, I'm not clear : my point is that the division in 100 is common in music theory. With Lily, we try to follow common music theory as much as possible. Hence, octave nr. 0, step 0 is the middle C, and it is denoted as c' in .ly
