imprecision is due to how python handles the float 0.6 is actually 0.5999999999 se this updated code that should do the trick rounding the float to the second decimal, i'll edit my previous post https://code.sololearn.com/cPdTOl9433eo/?ref=app

example amount 13.6 divide the amount by the current coin if is bigger than zero store the value calculate the modulus to get the reminder assing the value of the reminder to the amount repeat the operation until with the updated amount and the next coin.

ml = [2.0, 1.0, 0.5, 0.2, 0.1, 0.05, 0.02, 0.01] amount = float(input("Please Enter An Amount: ")) def money(amount): for i in ml: if amount//i>0: if i<=amount: print(amount,"in coins by",i, "=") print(amount//i) amount = round(amount%i,2) if amount == 0: break money(amount)

it's supposed to give an answer like this: Input 13 Euro answer: you need 6 of 2 Euros and 1 means: [2 EUR, 2EUR, 2EUR, 2EUR, 2EUR, 2EUR, 1EUR]
