To be more specific it looks like this:
((pow(2*math.pi*v,2)))*((pow(2,2))
piece of your very large single line of calculation is the culprit.
You should be able to convert to a decimal like so:
{previous_stuff_here} * Decimal(str(((pow(2*math.pi*v,
2)))*((pow(2,2)))) * {more_stuff_here }
As a readability thing, you might want to split that giant line of
code into a few separate calculations, but that's just an idea!
