Buy a good book about numerics or take a course. ;)

Seriously, computers and IEEE 754 floating point numbers have a lot of
pit falls. If you chose the wrong algorithm you *will* get wrong
results. With floats a*b*c and a*c*b can give you a different result.

The decimal module is not an option if you need speed.
