New submission from Mehmet Yozcu <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: I don't know what's wrong but when I write on the IDLE 2.3+6.3 it gives an answer like 8.59999999996 or similar when I write on the IDLE print 2.3+6.3 the answer is 8.6 as I expected I tried these two commands on the DrPython IDE;the result was the same.
Below, I copy-past everything on the consol screen with detail of my system configuration. And I ask if someone can help me with this? Thank you in advance.
