PEP 485: A function for testing approximate equality
----------------------------------------------------
:pep:`485` adds the :func:`math.isclose` and :func:`cmath.isclose`
functions which tell whether two values are approximately equal or
"close" to each other. Whether or not two values are considered
close is determined according to given absolute and relative tolerances.
