No. Everyone (Python, Fortran, C, C#...) uses floating point, this is how rockets are sent to Saturn. Of course you have to learn to live with its idiosyncrasies. The cases where you want infinite precision are fairly rare (mostly when dealing with money).
Unless noted otherwise, code in my posts should be understood as "coding suggestions", and its use may require more neurones than the two necessary for Ctrl-C/Ctrl-V.
