New submission from Mark Summerfield: I don't know if this is a bug, but it is certainly a difference in behavior between platforms:
Python 3.0a2 on linux2: >>> "{0:.3e}".format(123.45678901) '1.235e+02' Python 3.0a2 on win32: >>> "{0:.3e}".format(123.45678901) '1.235e+002' It seems to me that str.format() should produce consistent results across platforms, but I don't think the PEP says anything either way. ---------- components: Interpreter Core messages: 58485 nosy: mark severity: normal status: open title: str.format() produces different output on different platforms (Py30a2) type: behavior versions: Python 3.0 __________________________________ Tracker <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <http://bugs.python.org/issue1600> __________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
