Mike, read that exchange again. You originally wrote
"print(2 / 2) gives 2.0 instead of 2"
but you didn't _mean_ that. You meant to say it "gives 1.0 instead of 1", or

Mike, the bug tracker is not a help-desk for questions. There are many other
forums where you can ask for help:
- the python-list and tutor mailing lists
https://www.python.org/community/lists/
- Stackoverflow
- The Python IRC channel https://www.python

As for reasons for changing the division operator, read PEP 238.

New submission from mike stern :
please I would like to know why python changes an integer result in a division
to a float even in the result is even
like print(2 / 2) gives 2.0 instead of 2
or
a = 2 / 2
print(a)
