Guido van Rossum <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> added the comment: That is truly maddening! :-(
I guess Noam's proposal to return str(x) if float(str(x)) == x makes more sense then. I don't really care as much about 1.234567890123 vs. 1.2345678901229999 as I care about 1.2345 vs. 1.2344999999999999. (This comment is supposed to *precede* the patch.) _______________________________________ Python 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
