I'm using Python within SPSS to read some values within a dataset. These values are stored in a list. I am using 15 decimal places and in the list the values appear with 15 houses. However when I copy the value to a variable this stores with up to 12 houses. Ex. list = [0,123456789101112, 0,987654321012345]
x = lita [0]
When I use x it loads type 0.123456789.
This happens even though I use: x = float (list [0]). The Python version is 2.7.6 and SPSS 23.
