Eric, I was unaware of this document and its implementation in python. where 0.01+0.15 = 0.16 but 0.01+273.15=273.15999999999997 the latter which should be 273.16 which is triple point temperature of water in Kelvin. This floating point variance explains some if the conditional test failures I have encountered. regards Alan Get Outlook for Android<https://aka.ms/ghei36> ________________________________ From: report=bugs.python....@roundup.psfhosted.org <report=bugs.python....@roundup.psfhosted.org> on behalf of Eric V.
