Hi,
I am new to python and just installed it on my win pc.
First thing what I did were some calculations (see below).
There is a failure in th last digit at 10/3 and 100/3.
Sorry if this is a RTFM-issue...

See https://docs.python.org/3.7/tutorial/floatingpoint.html. Essentially, the behaviour you are seeing is caused by the fact that the results calculations you are attempting cannot be exactly represented in binary floating point, so approximate results are shown.
