Mark Dickinson	388122d43b	Issue #9337: Make float.__str__ identical to float.__repr__. ... (And similarly for complex numbers.)	2010-08-04 20:56:28 +00:00
Mark Dickinson	33841c3489	Issue #5859: Remove '%f' to '%g' formatting switch for large floats.	2009-05-01 15:37:04 +00:00
Mark Dickinson	d3ca557150	Issue #5864: Fix problem with empty code formatting for floats, ... where a bogus trailing zero could be added.	2009-04-29 18:47:07 +00:00
Mark Dickinson	b08a53a99d	Issue #1580: use short float repr where possible. ... - incorporate and adapt David Gay's dtoa and strtod into the Python core - on platforms where we can use Gay's code (almost all!), repr(float) is based on the shortest sequence of decimal digits that rounds correctly. - add sys.float_repr_style attribute to indicate whether we're using Gay's code or not - add autoconf magic to detect and enable SSE2 instructions on x86/gcc - slight change to repr and str: repr switches to exponential notation at 1e16 instead of 1e17, str switches at 1e11 instead of 1e12	2009-04-16 19:52:09 +00:00
