You can use locale.format() to format your numbers for output. This has the additional benefit of being consistent with any locale-specific conventions that might be expected in the presentation of the numbers. If you want complete control at the specific place where you do the output, you'd be better of with the print "format" % vars... variant.

Example:

>>> import locale 
>>> locale.setlocale(locale.LC_ALL, "")
'C/UTF-8/C/C/C/C'
>>> locale.format("%f", 2.32313e+07, 1)
'23231300.000000'
