[New-bugs-announce] [issue41269] Wrong subtraction calculations

[Ivan]

New submission from Ivan <ivan.babic.zg at gmail.com>:

I've started to learn python and tried command:
print(-2.989 + 2)
it gives me result of -0.9889999999999999
same error can be observed with numbers from 4 and below like:
print(-2.989 + 4)
1.0110000000000001

print(-2.989 + 3)
0.01100000000000012

print(-2.989 + 1)
-1.9889999999999999

Numbers above 4 seam to work fine
