| Is there any way to do single-precision floating point | calculations in Python? Make your own Python build from altered source. And run it on an ancient processor/OS/C compiler combination that does not automatically convert C floats to double when doing any sort of calculation. Standard CPython does not have C single-precision floats. The only point I can think of for doing this with single numbers, as opposed to arrays of millions, is to show that there is no point. Or do you have something else in mind? Terry Jan Reedy -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
