On mips64 biit machine running linux I have installed python2.4_2.4.4 from link "http://archive.debian.net/etch/python2.4" using below commands:

./configure –enable-shared
make 
make install  

But when I check value of sqrt(9.0) on python, python returns:“4.9406564584124654e-324” rather than “3.0”. 

Can anybody let me know what may be the reason for this.

Regards
Shivam Agarwal
