We've had this discussion here one or two days ago...
The usual answer is: please read "What Every Computer Scientist Should
Know About Float
Hello,
when I have Python subtract floating point numbers it yields weird
results. Example:
4822.40 - 4785.52 = 36.87992
Why doesn't Python simply yield the correct result? It doesn't have a
problem with this:
482240 - 478552 = 3688
Can I tell Python in some way to do this differently?
