I have a 'Python 2.7' installed.
It seems like the decimal.py module that comes with the Python2.7 package is
not
working. I hope I'm wrong, but here's why I think so:
If I simply try to import the module, I get this error:
>>> import decimal
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
File "/opt/ictools/python_2_7/lib/python2.7/decimal.py", line 3700, in
<module>
_numbers.Number.register(Decimal)
AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'Number'
>>>
But, if I download, and import the 2.5 version of decimal.py, it imports with
no
complaint.
In the 2.5 version of decimal.py, there is no reference to '_numbers' like
there
is in the 2.6 and 2.7 versions.
Is this a bug, or is there something I can do to fix it (as a user, with
limited
permissions)? I don't feel good about continuing to run with the 2.5
decimal.py,
since I'll be using alot of numpy and other modules that use decimal, and I
don't know how they'll react.
Thanks,
Bob
