`from scipy import stats` `a = stats.norm.cdf(2.1882658846227234)` `round(a,4)` gives: `0.9857` `round(a,4)*100` one would expect to output 98.57. It returns: `98.57000000000001` For comparison, if I multiply with 10 or 1000 the output is as expected. |

This is expected behaviour, the FAQ entry on floating point gives a good explanation about what's going on here: https://docs.python.org/3.7/tutorial/floatingpoint.html |
