> we've run the ball almost the full length of the field and then failed to put > the ball over the goal line But if we only go from "faithfully rounded" to "almost always correctly rounded", it seems to me that we're still a couple of millimetres away from that goal line. It wouldn't be hard to go for _always_ correctly rounded and actually get it over. > Yes, the Emin and Emax for the default context is already almost big enough I'm confused: big enough for what? I was thinking of the use-case where the inputs are all floats, in which case an Emax of 999 and an Emin of -999 would already be more than big enough. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue45876> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
