Balance Decimals

Noting my python code for reference. If familiar with crypto currency tokens you may find the token balance does not have decimals but rather store the decimal value separately.

For example this query shows the balance:

$ curl -s https://api.ethplorer.io/getAddressInfo/0xbcB79558e0d66475882A36FaF4124Ec45aA70dA3\?apiKey\=freekey | jq -r '.tokens[0].balance' 
1001193304561787500000

If you look at the token detail you see the decimals recorded:

$ curl -s https://api.ethplorer.io/getAddressInfo/0xbcB79558e0d66475882A36FaF4124Ec45aA70dA3\?apiKey\=freekey | jq -r '.tokens[0].tokenInfo.decimals'
18

For my python3 code I used as follow:

$ python3
