 Internally your computer stores floats as as binary fractions. Many decimal values cannot be stored as exact binary fractions, which means an approximation has to be used.
 
 **How you can avoid this**
-If you require an exact decimal representation, you can use the [decimal](https://docs.python.org/3/library/decimal.html) or [fractions](https://docs.python.org/3/library/fractions.html) module. Here is an example using the decimal module:
+ You can use [math.isclose](https://docs.python.org/3/library/math.html#math.isclose) to check if two floats are close, or to get an exact decimal representation, you can use the [decimal](https://docs.python.org/3/library/decimal.html) or [fractions](https://docs.python.org/3/library/fractions.html) module. Here are some examples:
 ```python
->>> from decimal import Decimal
->>> Decimal('0.1') + Decimal('0.2')
+>>> math.isclose(0.1 + 0.2, 0.3)
+True
+>>> decimal.Decimal('0.1') + decimal.Decimal('0.2')
 Decimal('0.3')
 ```
-Note that we enter in the number we want as a string so we don't pass on the imprecision from the float.
+Note that with `decimal.Decimal` we enter the number we want as a string so we don't pass on the imprecision from the float.
