A wilson added the comment:
Eric,
I was unaware of this document and its implementation in python.
where
0.01+0.15 = 0.16 but 0.01+273.15=273.159997
the latter which should be 273.16 which is triple point temperature of water in
Kelvin.
This floating point variance explains some
New submission from A wilson :
0.01 + 273.15 should equal 273.16 but in python 3.9.5 or earlier report as
273.159997.
