Letter for letter, maybe, but not space for space. Indentation is

try comparing that "10." (as it's printed) with 10.0 i.e.
print (t == 10.)
you'll get False - even though they print the same

Don't feel too badly about it. Even very experienced programmers get

usually architected so that you don't normally see the -0, but it leads you
to think about arithmetic a bit differently.

From the last time a similar question was asked[1]:
