Thanks for the quick turnaround. I have done a little bit more thorough investigation and it does indeed the floating point that causes the behavior. The screenshot attached is done via Python3 from trinket.io. I will submit a screenshot of the Python 2 screenshot from trinket.io for comparison. Even though floating point is the underlying concept, Python 2 and 3 do not converge in the result. On the side note, The behavior could be more easily expressed as follows: 2// .2 == 9.0 2000000000/.2 == 9999999999.0
