Yes of course. The only logically-acceptable meaning of “mantissa” is “female
mantis”, and any other usage is to be the immedi
A lot of these arguments and points have already been made and hashed out

Hi all.
I've been looking at this for a bit, and can't seem to come to a possible
conclusion on what could be happening to get an error. Anyway, here is the

the issue comes when using argv. But when I change

I thought I'd experiment with some of Python's compression utilities. First I
thought I'd try compressing some extremely non-random data:
