Noam Raphael added the comment: I think that for str(), the current method is better - using the new repr() method will make str(1.1*3) == '3.3000000000000003', instead of '3.3'. (The repr is right - you can check, and 1.1*3 != 3.3. But for str() purposes it's fine.)
But I actually think that we should also use Tcl's decimal to binary conversion - otherwise, a .pyc file created by python compiled with Microsoft will cause a different behaviour from a .pyc file created by python compiled with Gnu, which is quite strange. __________________________________ Tracker <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <http://bugs.python.org/issue1580> __________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
