Seems it floors rather than truncates: $ python2.7 -c "from math import trunc;print trunc(799./-100)" -7 $ python2.7 -c "from math import floor;print floor(799./-100)" -8.0 $ python2.7 -c "print 799/-100" -8 $ python3.2 -c "print(799//-100)" -8 -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
