Eric V. Smith added the comment: I've just looked through the code for 2.7. It uses short float repr for both %-formatting and for float.__format__. So they both use Gay's code, and both should work the same as they do in 3.2+. In all cases, round-half-to-even is used.
It's 2.6 that uses the C library to do float formatting (for both %-formatting and float.__format__). ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue17259> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
