[docs] [issue16609] float loses precision when passed to str()

[Antoine Pitrou]

Antoine Pitrou added the comment:

I agree with Mark here. This isn't specific to random.random() and it's already covered elsewhere in the documentation.

Furthermore, I don't know why you're using str() on random.random(). There are better ways to get random strings, such as random.getrandbits() or os.urandom().

Recommend closing.
