The precise details of how floats are displayed may vary. In general, if you
care about the exact details, you should control them by hand using either
C-style % string interpolation, or the format method:
py> x = 134 / 6.0
py> "%.16f" % x
'22.3333333333333321'
py> "{:.16f}".format(x)
'22.3333333333333321'
