Float#

class basencode.Float(n: Union[float, str, Tuple[Union[int, str]], List[Union[int, str]]], base: int = 10, digits: Optional[List[str]] = None, radix_point: str = '.')#

Bases: _Number

The Float class, a child of _Number, for non-negative floating point numbers

Parameters:

  • n – The number to be converted to decimal and stored

  • base – The base in which the number provided is represented (this information is used to convert the number to decimal)

  • digits – The digits used in the provided representation of the number

  • radix_point – The radix point used in the provided representation of the number, if at all

repr_in_base(base: int, digits: Optional[List[str]] = None, mode: str = 's', max_frac_places: int = 100) → Union[str, List[str]]#

Represents the decimal value of the instance of _Number in the base provided.

Parameters:

  • base – The base to represent the _Number’s decimal value in

  • digits – The digits to use in the representation; these are also set as the default digits (for this object) for the base provided.

  • mode – Whether to return the representation as a string or a list

  • max_frac_places – The maximum number of digits succeeding the radix point

Returns:

The representation of the _Number’s decimal value in the base provided

Return type:

str | list[str]
