New submission from tryme:
I am new to python and I don't know if it really is a bug. But indeed when I
see sth is not right it is worthwhile to point out.
Using fresh installed ubuntu desktop with build in python3.
typing the command line by line in terminal just for learning. below is the
scene
it has automatically round down. Don't know if it is limit of float.
$ python3
Python 3.4.3 (default, Oct 14 2015, 20:28:29)
