No there is no bug, try 12665465^77 wolfram alpha gives 7976781785088446084873306945009387424538813088491673402748035781202063831184317457635773873975198429536727051788368983080016275695338973787545408588270715883570324803120051806974411884509607864124408509087974736382639726555779113221450078243163340395784592348080359062163885323462144257596380766496966084237358222613649636595300081207683175410584139478853066960795599027150403706812116411354218686846750615496852415389467898730884554700066802269059177874281189887271741594702334892800692129299635716260471508809448693000376806594431400299072265625 Try that number you get a ONE followed by 77 ZEROS -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
