From 6f255a5e62ead8d40c4d254dcc63488e543e68d8 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Brian Rue Date: Fri, 28 Jun 2013 15:55:23 -0700 Subject: Use consistent example for demonstrating integer vs. float division I had to do a decent amount of mental math to figure out the old example (11 / 4 => 2). This one (5 / 2 => 2) is easier, and makes the difference vs. float division (5.0 / 2.0 => 2.5) easier to spot. --- python.html.markdown | 2 +- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-) (limited to 'python.html.markdown') diff --git a/python.html.markdown b/python.html.markdown index a599f5d3..20e4f3a8 100644 --- a/python.html.markdown +++ b/python.html.markdown @@ -32,7 +32,7 @@ to Python 2.x.
