The word description of the meaning of the tolerance attributes told me absolutely nothing.  The equation from the math.islcose docs makes it prefectly clear.  So I think the formula should be included in the documentation.

assertAlomstEqual has a delta attribute now, which is equivalent to abs_tol.  Perhaps instead we should add rel_tol to assertAlmostEqual?
