floats, with python 3.5 and up, use the hardware floating point registers when available, and that’s high speed indeed, whereas decimal uses scalar or a software implementation

Anyone would like to help reviewing a project before releasing it as an open source project? It's a backend framework. I'm already using it (forks of it) in few projects, so when it comes to production-ready state I can assume it's okay. But, I'd still welcome any input about it. Also, documentation is almost a BIG ZER...

Nobody will ever stumble upon your github project unless you explicitly promote it many times on different platforms (reddit, HN, slack groups, etc) - because github is sooo huge and there are sooo many projects in there

It's problematic to remove an item from a list you're iterating through, which is probably causing one of the 5's to get skipped over. Try using `for n in rolls[:]:` to make a copy of the list.

By the way, you can remove all of the `else: pass` clauses, as they don't do anything. An `else` is not required in an `if` statement.

That's what removing an item from a list does if you're iterating over it at the time... the `for` gets confused about which item it's on, since the one it was working on just disappeared, and everyone else scooted forward, so the 3rd item is now the 2nd, etc.
