I understand in cython some precision is lost, because a cython float is not the same as a python float. Consequently I redifined a variable as follows:
cdef long double variable=1*10**-10
print variable
0.0
This failed however:
cdef long double variable=0.0000000001
print variable
1e-10
was successful. I need to perform relatively precise calculations so I am keen to understand this behavior.
