New submission from steve21 <steve872929...@yahoo.com.au>: $ python3.1 Python 3.1 (r31:73572, Jul 6 2009, 21:21:12) [GCC 4.4.0 20090506 (Red Hat 4.4.0-4)] on linux2 Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information. >>> import math >>> math.log10(1000) 3.0 >>> math.log(1000, 10) 2.9999999999999996
You would expect the results to be the same. Internally math.log() could call math.log10() when base==10. That would ensure they are consistent. ---------- components: Library (Lib) messages: 91886 nosy: steve21 severity: normal status: open title: math.log, log10 inconsistency versions: Python 3.1 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue6765> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
