Eric Smith <e...@trueblade.com> added the comment: The documentation doesn't agree with the PEP. The docs at http://docs.python.org/library/string.html#formatstrings just say '' is the same as 'g'. It does not draw a distinction between exponential and fixed output.
The PEP has the "at least one digit after the decimal" language. It also does not draw a distinction between exponential and fixed output. ---------- nosy: +marketdickinson _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue5686> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
