这是一个让无数程序员困惑的问题:为什么在Python中0.1 + 0.2不等于0.3?这个问题不仅存在于Python中,几乎所有使用IEEE 754浮点数标准的编程语言都有这个问题。理解这个问题的根源,对于写出正确的数值计算代码至关重大。
# 经典的浮点数精度问题
print(0.1 + 0.2) # 0.30000000000000004
print(0.1 + 0.2 == 0.3) # False
# 更多例子
print(0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1) # 0.30000000000000004
print(0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 == 0.3) # False
# 看起来正常的例子
print(0.5 + 0.5) # 1.0
print(0.25 + 0.25) # 0.5
这个问题的根源在于计算机如何表明浮点数。计算机使用二进制来表明数字,但许多十进制小数无法准确地用二进制表明。
# 让我们看看一些数字的二进制表明
def decimal_to_binary(decimal, precision=20):
"""将十进制小数转换为二进制"""
if decimal == 0:
return "0"
result = []
for _ in range(precision):
decimal *= 2
if decimal >= 1:
result.append("1")
decimal -= 1
else:
result.append("0")
if decimal == 0:
break
return "0." + "".join(result)
# 测试
print("0.1 in binary:", decimal_to_binary(0.1))
print("0.2 in binary:", decimal_to_binary(0.2))
print("0.3 in binary:", decimal_to_binary(0.3))
输出会显示0.1和0.2的二进制表明是无限循环的,这就是精度问题的根源。
