New issue 129 by mh3nmshy...@gmail.com: Time stamp problem in dpkt
http://code.google.com/p/dpkt/issues/detail?id=129

I used dpkt for parsing a pcap file. but when I printed timestamp(ts)
output was like this:1408173480.93
but I need ts should have 6 float digit. for example:1408173480.936543
what should I do?

I am assuming that you are doing something like this:
for ts, buf in pcap:
print ts

And then you observe the timestamp to be "1408173480.93" instead
of "1408173480.936543", as shown in wireshark. This is because the print
function in python limits float to two decimal places.

Example:
>>> x = 1258494066.119061
>>> x
1258494066.119061
>>> print x
1258494066.12

If you really need to print the full value, use format:
>>> "{0:.6f}".format(x)
'1258494066.119061'
