Python float to Decimal conversion

Question

Python Decimal doesn\'t support being constructed from float; it expects that you have to convert float to a string first.

This is very inconvenient since standard

Answer 1

You said in your question:

Can someone suggest a good way to convert from float to Decimal preserving value as the user has entered

But every time the user enters a value, it is entered as a string, not as a float. You are converting it to a float somewhere. Convert it to a Decimal directly instead and no precision will be lost.
