Guido van Rossum added the comment: This is what I was thinking of before, although I'd use "%.16g"%f and "%.17g"%f instead of str(f) and repr(f), and I'd use float() instead of eval().
I suspect that it doesn't satisfy Tim Peters though, because this may depend on a rounding bug in the local platform's input function. __________________________________ 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
