For completeness, here's the output using just format, which I prefer over str.format because there's less going on: it removes all of the str.format machinery and basically directly calls obj.__format__. >>> format(1504, '.3g') '1.5e+03' >>> format(1505, '.3g') '1.50e+03' >>> format(1506, '.3g') '1.51e+03'
