Thanks very much Alan.  As for the my concern about inaccuracy in float math, I 
suppose I am concerned because I was not aware of the issue before, and I

Besides Alan's previous statement about using integers you can also use things like Python's decimal module see https://docs.python.org/3/library/decimal.html#module-decimal
