[TIP] newb - nose and floating point values

[Carl Trachte]

Unittest module has assertAlmostEqual method
> (http://docs.python.org/lib/testcase-objects.html#l2h-5025), which
> does exactly what you need:
>
> import unittest
>
>
> def addtwonumbers(num1, num2):
>     return num1 + num2
>
>
> class TestAddTwoNumber(unittest.TestCase):
>     def test_addtwonumbers(self):
>         self.assertEqual(10, addtwonumbers(4, 6))
>         self.assertEqual(40, addtwonumbers(8, 32))
>         self.assertAlmostEqual(2.2, addtwonumbers(4.3, -2.1))
>
