factorial(49) has 163 significant binary digits. It cannot be represented in floating-point without losses. And C functions log2() and exp2() can add additional errors, depending on platform. We rely on the assumption that all errors will be compensated, but there are no guaranties of this. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue37295> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
