Hi Brian,
....
This ran perfectly on Python 3.1rc1 (r31rc1:73069, May 31 2009,
08:57:10) on my WinXP box (one of a few).
Note: if this level of chaos / noise bothers you (the functions are
algebraically the same, after all), then I recommend using the decimal
type instead of the floating type, converting to float just to make
your turtle happy:
That's fine (for the turtle). But if someone thinks that everything is
calculated
"correctly" now, she/he is bound to get disappointed. And that's the
point (imho).
