try: >>> print (3.0/5.0) 0.6 > Is there some precision loss? And how to overcome it? Make sure the result gets piped through some floating point con- version (like print, %s etc.) BTW, the 0.59999999999999998 value is the "exact" calculated value corresponding to your floating point accuracy (34/2 digits).
