Hi,
  I am writing a script for 'cubic spline interpolation' and when there is
a float value = 0.004, it is rounded off to zero and I am getting a Zero
Division error. Is it a python bug?

Prem.

x=array([2.056, 2.06, 2.064, 2.068, 2.072, 2.076, 2.08, 2.084, 2.088,
2.092, 2.096, 2.1, 2.104])
..
..
..
d[0]=x[1]-x[0]
c[1]=(y[1]-y[0])/d[0] 

Here d[0] is 0.004(equally spaced points) and is being considered as 0 and
I am getting this error.
