The modules described in this chapter provide numeric and math-related functions
and data types. The numbers
module defines an abstract hierarchy of
numeric types. The math
and cmath
modules contain various
mathematical functions for floating-point and complex numbers. The decimal
module supports exact representations of decimal numbers, using arbitrary precision
arithmetic.
