convert the numerator to a float. Otherwise you
are using integer division. (I'm guessing you
are running Python 2.7?)
You could also import division from future:
from __future__ import division
Alternatively you could try running Python v3.
PS, Its probably not a great idea to use i as both
the iteration variable and the input parameter.
It easily causes confusion.
