This is extremely weird, I think.
No, its normal and you got the right reason.... its due to floating
point
binary representation issues.
Here is a tiny program:
from math import *
from Numeric import *
This is probably a bad idea here (in fact its usually a bad idea!)
since
both math and numeric are likely to have similar names in them
By importing all names from the modules there is a high chance
of name clashes causing strange behaviour.
Better to use
import math, Numeric
Or, if that's too much typing, use
import math as M
import Numeric as N
x=[0]*10
for counter in rangelen((x)):
x[counter]=counter*0.1
print x
Although of course you are not using anything from either math or
Numeric in this example, but I assume you intend to!?
HTH,
