> 	0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9
> 	>>> arange(0.0,10.0)
> 	0.00000 1.00000 2.00000 3.00000 4.00000 5.00000 6.00000 7.00000 8.00000 9.00000

On my machine the last two give the same answer, as expected. If they
don't for you, I suspect rounding problems. Check if 
  arange(0.0,10.0)-arange(10.0)
really gives zeroes. If so, my printing code behaves funnily on your
machine. If not, arange() behaves funnily ;-)
