New submission from Andrew: I just recently discovered this bug, but when adding or subtracting a number and a precision error occurs when using at least 1 floating-point number in the operation. For example, 1 - 0.98 should output 0.02, but instead outputs 0..020000000000000018 (at least on my machine).
Included is a simple script showing what happens, just when incrementing or decrementing by 0.01 from 0 to 1. I am running Python 3.4.3 on a 64-bit Arch Linux machine. ---------- components: Interpreter Core files: weirdpythonbug.py messages: 249458 nosy: videogames4all priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: Arithmetic/precision bug when using floating-point numbers type: behavior versions: Python 3.4 Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file40313/weirdpythonbug.py _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue24976> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
