Martin v. Löwis <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> added the comment: Python (the language) makes no guarantee itself on what the precise semantics of floating-point operations is. This is documented in
http://docs.python.org/ref/types.html "These represent machine-level double precision floating point numbers. You are at the mercy of the underlying machine architecture (and C or Java implementation) for the accepted range and handling of overflow." If you want to, one could add ", precision" in the sentence; I think it is fine as it stands. ---------- nosy: +loewis __________________________________ Tracker <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <http://bugs.python.org/issue2937> __________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
