Hi.
pyTables saves wrong data to file. I read the docs, but I don't know what
I'm doing wrong. It's the first time I noticed this kind of behavior. Any
suggestions?

*problem: *
writing items in testL = [12.12, 12.1234567] to table
data in table: col1 = 12.1199998856, col2 = 12.1234569550
expected: col1 = 12.12, col2 = 12.1234567

*script:*
class MyDescrClass(IsDescription):
    eventDate = Float64Col()
    col1 = Float32Col()
    col2 = Float32Col()

newdb = "_misc/db/test.h5"
dbFilters = tables.Filters(complevel=9, complib='blosc', shuffle=1)
h5file = tables.openFile(db, filters=dbFilters, mode="a")

testL = [12.12, 12.1234567]
print("data in list: %.10f, %.10f" % (testL[0], testL[1]))

newh5file = tables.openFile(newdb, filters=dbFilters, mode="a")
newh5file.createTable(newh5file.root, "myTable", MyDescrClass, "someTitle",
filters=dbFilters, expectedrows=1000000000)

testT = newh5file.root.myTable
testT.row["col1"] = testL[0]
testT.row["col2"] = testL[1]
testT.row["eventDate"] = 1311530521.215325
testT.row.append()
testT.flush()

for row in testT:
    print("data in table: col1 = %.10f, col2 = %.10f" % (row["col1"],
row["col2"]))
newh5file.close()

*output:*
data in list: 12.1200000000, 12.1234567000
data in table: col1 = 12.1199998856, col2 = 12.1234569550
