Python: Convert Float in Scientific Notation to Int

**Problem: **I’ve got a bunch of large integers stored in a DB (a bunch of Twitter IDs), but when I used Python to access them, it automatically converted them to scientific notation. How do I get them from scientific notation back to their original forms?

**Solution: **

In order to convert from the scientific notation, simply cast them to an integer.

for scienceNum in scienceNums:
print int(scienceNum)

This should convert the e+17, or whatever form it gives you, back to the original large integer.
