When I first saw "default rounding precision of 64 bits", I've thought it's about "64 bit precision", aka binary64, aka double. So I suggested that the code expects some hardly known Intel FPU-specific binary56 instead. Now, after a second paragraph of your reply I see that in reality it's about significand precision (so rounding precision of 64 bits is for binary80, and 53 is for binary64). > at 53-bit precision (not 56-bit) You're right. That was a typo. Thank you for clarification, I'm closing the issue as not-a-bug. ---------- resolution: -> not a bug stage: -> resolved status: open -> closed _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue45702> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
