Hello.I'm writing a french book about SageMathCloud and I'm looking for known wrong results given by Sage or Sympy due to floats calculations, or due to the formal method used. Do you know such things ? My idea is to show to new user that a CAS or a numerical tool is not Math God.

Just let me the time to write things. ;-)
It is strange to criticize something that I have not yet written.
When I say that I like an example, this not means that will put it in my doc without explanations. For example, I have written some pages just to explain why 0.1+0.2 <> 0.3 by explaining the binary approximations used in the float format, and also the approximations made to do the binary sum.
On the other hand, it is easier to start with 0.1 and 1/10. I will add it in my doc before talking about 0.1+0.2.
