What is the difference between float and double? - Stack Overflow Type double, 64 bits long, has a bigger range (*10^+ -308) and 15 digits precision Type long double is nominally 80 bits, though a given compiler OS pairing may store it as 12-16 bytes for alignment purposes The long double has an exponent that just ridiculously huge and should have 19 digits precision
c - float vs. double precision - Stack Overflow The reason it's called a double is because the number of bytes used to store it is double the number of a float (but this includes both the exponent and significand) The IEEE 754 standard (used by most compilers) allocates relatively more bits for the significand than the exponent (23 to 9 for float vs 52 to 12 for double ), which is why the
c++ - double and accuracy - Stack Overflow A double typically provides 16(±1) decimal digits Your example shows this: 4 8 12 16 v v v v 0 947368421052631578 long double 0 947368421052631526 double The answers agree to 16 digits This is what should be expected Also, note that there's no guarantee in the C Standard that a long double has more precision than a double
c++ - Double precision - decimal places - Stack Overflow On the other hand, if you print out an arbitrary double with 15 decimal places and the convert it back to a double, you won't necessarily get the same value back—you need 17 decimal places for that And neither 15 nor 17 decimal places are enough to accurately display the exact decimal equivalent of an arbitrary double
What exactly does Double mean in java? - Stack Overflow A double is an IEEE754 double-precision floating point number, similar to a float but with a larger range and precision IEEE754 single precision numbers have 32 bits (1 sign, 8 exponent and 23 mantissa bits) while double precision numbers have 64 bits (1 sign, 11 exponent and 52 mantissa bits)
Difference between long double and double in C and C++ The standard only requires that long double is at least as precise as double, so some compilers will simply treat long double as if it is the same as double But, on most x86 chips, the 10-byte extended precision format 80-bit number is available through the CPU's floating-point unit, which provides even more precision than 64-bit double , with
c++ - Should I use double or float? - Stack Overflow There are three floating point types: float, double, and long double The type double provides at least as much precision as float, and the type long double provides at least as much precision as double So, all three can be the same size in memory Presence of an FPU
Correct format specifier for double in printf - Stack Overflow Format %lf is a perfectly correct printf format for double, exactly as you used it There's nothing wrong with your code There's nothing wrong with your code Format %lf in printf was not supported in old (pre-C99) versions of C language, which created superficial "inconsistency" between format specifiers for double in printf and scanf
