Martin v. Löwis <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> added the comment: I see. There is no such thing as a "correct" conversion from real numbers to integer numbers. Instead, there are various approaches, called "truncating", "rounding", "flooring", and "ceiling". Python's default conversion is truncation, and it is consistent in doing so: int(x) will return the nearest integer between 0 and x.
If you want rounding, use the round builtin. ---------- resolution: -> invalid status: open -> closed _______________________________________ Python tracker <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <http://bugs.python.org/issue3024> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
