I am going to need to be handling money calculations and was wondering
about the float problem
in my calculations.
Should I simply run the results of all calculations through something
like this:
from __future__ import division
...
...
s=(int(round(s, 2)*100))/100
Or should I be using Decimal

Firstly - that does not magically fix the imprecisions in floating point
numbers.
Thanks! I am playing with Decimal suggested recipe now and it is just
way cool! Perfect! In fact, more than perfect!

Many of ius are independants, and write code for the love of it- or to
promote and sell independantly. So possibly a thread discussing ways to
turn useful code into moiney is a useful idea. If the wish of the list
is a thread here, we can do
