autocad plugin to scan for any precision number in line's length ?

Good evening, 

My problem is when I draw lines and found out later that it's not perfect length I want them to be.
For example if I want to draw 30cm line, when I measure it, it's 30.00cm. 
But when I open precision to be 0.0000cm it came out as 30.0004 cm.

If I have to measure the whole drawing line by line, it'll be a lot of time.
Does it has any script to scan the whole file and show me which line have that problem?

How are you drawing the lines?  OSNAP, SNAP, keyboard entry?  Ultimately decimal numbers will all have some variation at the 14th significant figure but 30.0004 may indicate a problem in technique.  As long as you set a reasonable level of dimesnional accuracy though, you should be able to use those lines in almost any real work.  Think of the tolerances actually used in architecture.
