Suppose we want to determine whether a floating-point number is negative.

A 32 bit floating-point number has 23 bits to store the fraction in.

The score is assumed to be a floating-point number that represents the similarity between the images.

Real - 4 bytes, interpreted as a base-16 short floating-point number.

However, floating-point numbers have only a certain amount of mathematical precision.

It also defines other limits that are relevant to the processing of floating-point numbers.

Other characters may be used to indicate floating-point numbers or specify precision.

The term may also refer to the size of low-level data types, such as 64-bit floating-point numbers.

This made it possible to transfer floating-point numbers from one computer to another after endianness conversion.

A simple method to add floating-point numbers is to first represent them with the same exponent.
