But that's exactly what we don't *want* you to do! Because (unless you are a numerical wizard) you probably aren't doing the error analysis needed to avoid the "unexpected extra point" problem due to floating point inaccuracies. For your own good, we want you to state the count and let us deliver the number of points you want. -- --Guido van Rossum (python.org/~guido) _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
