Tim Peters added the comment:
@Liam, try using the "decimal" module instead. That follows rules much like
the ones people learn as kids.
>>> from decimal import Decimal as D
>>> D("0.1") * 3 # decimal results are computed exactly
Decimal('0.3')
>>> D("1.01") - D(".01") # number of significant digits is preserved
Decimal('1.00')
Etc.
