convert the numerator to a float. Otherwise you
are using integer division. (I'm guessing you
are running Python 2.7?)

You could also import division from future:

from __future__ import division

Alternatively you could try running Python v3.

PS, Its probably not a great idea to use i as both
the iteration variable and the input parameter.
It easily causes confusion.
