Mark Dickinson added the comment: Note that this affects other Random methods, too. There are several places in the source where something of the form `int(i * random.random())` is used to select an integer in the half-open range [0, i).
And a nitpick: it's a stretch to describe double-rounding on multiplication (or any other arithmetic operation) as a bug: Python-the-language makes no promises about adhering to IEEE 754 arithmetic rule. (In fact, it makes no promises about using IEEE 745 formats in the first place.) ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue24567> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
