Any floating point number, whether produced by the math module or not, can be converted to a printable representation using the % operator with a format string:
>>> x = 1.84467440737e+19 >>> x 1.84467440737e+19 >>> print '%25.3f' % x 18446744073699999744.000 >>> print '%12.5e' % x 1.84467e+19 >>> print '%12.5g' % x 1.8447e+19 See http://docs.python.org/lib/typesseq-strings.html for all he details.
