Decimal#same_quantum() : same_quantum() is a Decimal class method which checks whether the two operands have the same exponent.
Syntax: Decimal.same_quantum()
Parameter: Decimal values
Return: true – if the two operands have the same exponent; otherwise false
Code #1 : Example for same_quantum() method
# Python Program explaining # same_quantum() 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.same_quantum() method print ("\n\nDecimal a with same_quantum() method : ", a.same_quantum(b)) print ("Decimal b with same_quantum() method : ", b.same_quantum(b)) |
Output :
Decimal value a : -1 Decimal value b : 0.142857 Decimal a with same_quantum() method : False Decimal b with same_quantum() method : True
Code #2 : Example for same_quantum() method
# Python Program explaining # same_quantum() 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.same_quantum() method print ("\n\nDecimal a with same_quantum() method : ", a.same_quantum(b)) print ("Decimal b with same_quantum() method : ", b.same_quantum(b)) |
Output :
Decimal value a : -3.14 Decimal value b : 3.21E+7 Decimal a with same_quantum() method : False Decimal b with same_quantum() method : True
