Facundo Batista added the comment: In short:
>>> long(100 * 146.95) 14694L This is NOT a bug, but a behaviour of binary floating point: >>> 146.95 146.94999999999999 In binary you can not express this number exactly. >>> 146.95 * 100 14694.999999999998 When you long() that, you truncate the number, so it goes to 14694. Please address further discussion through python-list.
