title: Python multiplication equivalent to integer division
body: <p>In python using <code>//</code> for division forces the result to be an integer. Is there an equivalent for multiplication? </p>
  
  <p>For example, assume I have an integer <code>W</code> which I scale by a float <code>f</code>. It could be nice to have an operator such as <code>.*</code>, so that:</p>
  
  <p><code>int(W*f)==W.*f</code> </p>
  
  <p>Would be True.</p>
