Example: str(10000.12345678901234) Out[24]: '10000.123456789011' shouldn't the last digit should be 2? |

The two numbers you gave become the same when rounded to the limited internal precision used by floats. >>> 10000.12345678901234 == 10000.123456789011 True When it comes to displaying the number, Python tries to show the shortest possible member of the equivalence class. |
