question about math module notation

How does one make the math module spit out actual values without using engineer or scientific notation? I get this from print math.pow(2,64): 1.84467440737e+19 I want this: 18,446,744,073,709,551,616 I'm lazy... I don't want to convert it manually :) -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/
