Syntax: Decimal.is_canonical()
Parameter: Decimal values
Return: true – if the Decimal value is canonical; otherwise false
Code #1 : Example for is_canonical() method
# Python Program explaining # is_canonical() method # loading decimal library from decimal import * # Initializing a decimal value a = Decimal(-1) b = Decimal('0.142857') # printing Decimal values print ("Decimal value a : ", a) print ("Decimal value b : ", b) # Using Decimal.is_canonical() method print ("\n\nDecimal a with is_canonical() method : ", a.is_canonical()) print ("Decimal b with is_canonical() method : ", b.is_canonical()) |
Output :
Decimal value a : -1 Decimal value b : 0.142857 Decimal a with is_canonical() method : True Decimal b with is_canonical() method : True
Code #2 : Example for is_canonical() method
# Python Program explaining # is_canonical() method # loading decimal library from decimal import * # Initializing a decimal value a = Decimal('-3.14') b = Decimal('321e + 5') # printing Decimal values print ("Decimal value a : ", a) print ("Decimal value b : ", b) # Using Decimal.is_canonical() method print ("\n\nDecimal a with is_canonical() method : ", a.is_canonical()) print ("Decimal b with is_canonical() method : ", b.is_canonical()) |
Output :
Decimal value a : -3.14 Decimal value b : 3.21E+7 Decimal a with is_canonical() method : True Decimal b with is_canonical() method : True
