Hello, I ran into a difficulty with floating point arithmetic in python. Namely that:
>>> 0.001 + 1 - 1 0.00099999999999988987 And, as a consequence, in python: >>> 0.001 + 1 - 1 == 0.001 False In more details, my problem is that I have a fonction which needs to compute (a + b - c) % a. And for b == c, you would expect the result to be 0 whatever the value of a. But it isn't... >>> (0.001 + 1 - 1) % 0.001 0.00099999999999988987 Is there any way to solve this? Many thanks, Guillaume _______________________________________________ NumPy-Discussion mailing list NumPy-Discussion@scipy.org http://mail.scipy.org/mailman/listinfo/numpy-discussion
