I was considering downgrading this to 'normal'. Then I found Bug 8, and it's a biggie:
>>> 10.900000000000000012345678912345678912345
10.0
Now I'm thinking it should be upgraded to release blocker instead.
The cause is in the _Py_strtod block that starts: 'if (nd > STRTOD_DIGLIM) {'... It truncates the input to 18 digits, and then deletes trailing zeros. But the code that deletes the zeros is buggy, and passes over the digit '9' just before the point. |
