usage of floor division

print(20//6)=3 print(20.0//6)=3.0 print(20.15//6)=3.0 So the rounded decimal part can only be one bit at most, right?

Hi! Of course, you're correct. But, floor division and floating-point numbers simply are fundamentally incompatible and you should never use // on floats. For that, you can use integers or math.floor() instead. https://stackoverflow.com/questions/44681860/why-does-integer-division-return-float
