Mark Dickinson <dicki...@gmail.com> added the comment: Benjamin, which docs are you looking at here? The ones at:
http://docs.python.org/library/stdtypes.html#string-formatting-operations say: """Floating point format. Uses lowercase exponential format if exponent is less than -4 or not less than precision, decimal format otherwise.""" which seem quite specific to me (though it could be made clearly exactly *what* exponent is meant here). ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue7051> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
