I have difficulties with a weird Python 2.4.2 behaviour in comparing Decimal to
Floats.
For Example :
>>> from decimal import Decimal
>>> a=Decimal('3.7')
>>> b=6.3
>>> if a > b :print a,b,'a is greater than b - NOT TRUE!!!!'
... else: print a,b,'b is greater than a - CORRECT'
...
3.7 6.3 a is greater than b - NOT TRUE!!!!
Have you ever encountered this behaviour ? It seems a bug to me...
Do you konw if there is any patch available for this?
Thank you very much
