Getting fractional part from a float without using string operations

[srinivasan srinivas]

Yes. But it didn't give only the expected decimals.
For ex:
>>> a = 1.23
>>> abs(int(a) -a)
0.22999999999999998

I would like to get the result '0.23' only.

Thanks,
Srini

x = 2.99340584
y = abs(int(x) - x)
y

Is that what you wanted?
