$ python2 -c 'print(4887.15 * 100)'
488715.0

map{substr$_->[0],$_->[1]||0,1}[\*||{},3],[[]],[ref qr-1,-,-1],[{}],[sub{}^*ARGV,3]

    Yes, I had good reason to avoid mentioning python2's print() implementation ;-)
    It apparently rounds to even fewer decimal digits than perl5: 
    $ python2 -c 'print 2 ** 0.5'
1.41421356237

$ perl -le 'print 2 ** 0.5'
1.4142135623731

    At least they've done something about it.
    Maybe perl7 will do the same.

    Cheers,
    Rob
