This patch fixes the problem in some, but not all cases. I'd like to take this a little further. As far as I can see, getting correctly rounded results in all cases is out of reach without either writing lots of multi-precision code (which would make the round code unnecessarily complicated and difficult to maintain) or using Python's arbitrary-precision integers (which would be slow). But it would be reasonable to aim for correctly rounded results ---------- versions: +Python 2.7, Python 3.1 -Python 2.5, Python 2.6 _______________________________________ Python tracker <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <http://bugs.python.org/issue1869> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
