math.isclose()已为此添加到Python 3.5(源代码)。这里是它到Python 2的一个端口。它与Mark Ransom的单行程序的不同之处在于它可以正确地处理“inf”和“-inf”。

def isclose(a, b, rel_tol=1e-09, abs_tol=0.0):
    '''
    Python 2 implementation of Python 3.5 math.isclose()
    https://github.com/python/cpython/blob/v3.5.10/Modules/mathmodule.c#L1993
    '''
    # sanity check on the inputs
    if rel_tol < 0 or abs_tol < 0:
        raise ValueError("tolerances must be non-negative")

    # short circuit exact equality -- needed to catch two infinities of
    # the same sign. And perhaps speeds things up a bit sometimes.
    if a == b:
        return True

    # This catches the case of two infinities of opposite sign, or
    # one infinity and one finite number. Two infinities of opposite
    # sign would otherwise have an infinite relative tolerance.
    # Two infinities of the same sign are caught by the equality check
    # above.
    if math.isinf(a) or math.isinf(b):
        return False

    # now do the regular computation
    # this is essentially the "weak" test from the Boost library
    diff = math.fabs(b - a)
    result = (((diff <= math.fabs(rel_tol * b)) or
               (diff <= math.fabs(rel_tol * a))) or
              (diff <= abs_tol))
    return result

我发现下面的比较很有帮助:

str(f1) == str(f2)

I'm not aware of anything in the Python standard library (or elsewhere) that implements Dawson's AlmostEqual2sComplement function. If that's the sort of behaviour you want, you'll have to implement it yourself. (In which case, rather than using Dawson's clever bitwise hacks you'd probably do better to use more conventional tests of the form if abs(a-b) <= eps1*(abs(a)+abs(b)) + eps2 or similar. To get Dawson-like behaviour you might say something like if abs(a-b) <= eps*max(EPS,abs(a),abs(b)) for some small fixed EPS; this isn't exactly the same as Dawson, but it's similar in spirit.

我喜欢Sesquipedal的建议，但有修改(一个特殊的用例时，两个值都是0返回False)。在我的例子中，我使用的是Python 2.7，只使用了一个简单的函数:

if f1 ==0 and f2 == 0:
    return True
else:
    return abs(f1-f2) < tol*max(abs(f1),abs(f2))

不带atol/rtol与给定小数进行比较:

def almost_equal(a, b, decimal=6):
    return '{0:.{1}f}'.format(a, decimal) == '{0:.{1}f}'.format(b, decimal)

print(almost_equal(0.0, 0.0001, decimal=5)) # False
print(almost_equal(0.0, 0.0001, decimal=4)) # True 

如果你想比较浮点数，上面的选项很好，但在我的情况下，我最终使用Enum的，因为我只有几个有效的浮点数，我的用例可以接受。

from enum import Enum
class HolidayMultipliers(Enum):
    EMPLOYED_LESS_THAN_YEAR = 2.0
    EMPLOYED_MORE_THAN_YEAR = 2.5

然后运行:

testable_value = 2.0
HolidayMultipliers(testable_value)

如果float是有效的，就没问题，否则它会抛出一个ValueError。
