The Python code does not respect the RPi's locale setting by default.

[Short-bus]

Jérémie / (Bobleponge91) found that pilomar.py and libraries do not understand "," as a decimal separator within Python functions if the locale specifies that character.
As a workaround the RPi's locale needs to be set to one with "." as the decimal character such as "UK/English".
Is there anything simple which can be implemented to make the program more tolerant of other locales?
