  2. Comparison of C Sharp and Java - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_C_Sharp_and_Java

    [21] [22] [23] Contrary to the float and double data types, decimal fractional numbers such as 0.1 can be represented exactly in the decimal representation. In the float and double representations, such numbers often have non-terminating binary expansions, making those representations more prone to round-off errors. [22]

  3. C Sharp (programming language) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/C_Sharp_(programming_language)

    Examples of value types are all primitive types, such as int (a signed 32-bit integer), float (a 32-bit IEEE floating-point number), char (a 16-bit Unicode code unit), decimal (fixed-point numbers useful for handling currency amounts), and System. DateTime (identifies a specific point in time with nanosecond precision).

  4. Comparison of programming languages (basic instructions)

    Integers, floating point numbers, strings, etc. are all considered "scalars". ^e PHP has two arbitrary-precision libraries. The BCMath library just uses strings as datatype.

  5. Microsoft Binary Format - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microsoft_Binary_Format

    Microsoft provides a dynamic link library for 16-bit Visual Basic containing functions to convert between MBF data and IEEE 754. This library wraps the MBF conversion functions in the 16-bit Visual C(++) CRT. These conversion functions will round an IEEE double-precision number like ¾ ⋅ 2 −128 to zero rather than to 2 −128.

  6. Decimal data type - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Decimal_data_type

    A decimal data type could be implemented as either a floating-point number or as a fixed-point number. In the fixed-point case, the denominator would be set to a fixed power of ten. In the floating-point case, a variable exponent would represent the power of ten to which the mantissa of the number is multiplied.

  7. Type conversion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Type_conversion

    The actions of type conversion in Eiffel, specifically converts to and converts from are defined as: A type based on a class CU converts to a type T based on a class CT (and T converts from U) if either CT has a conversion procedure using U as a conversion type, or CU has a conversion query listing T as a conversion type

  8. Double-precision floating-point format - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Double-precision_floating...

    Double-precision floating-point format (sometimes called FP64 or float64) is a floating-point number format, usually occupying 64 bits in computer memory; it represents a wide range of numeric values by using a floating radix point. Double precision may be chosen when the range or precision of single precision would be insufficient.

  9. Single-precision floating-point format - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Single-precision_floating...

    Single precision is termed REAL in Fortran; [1] SINGLE-FLOAT in Common Lisp; [2] float in C, C++, C# and Java; [3] Float in Haskell [4] and Swift; [5] and Single in Object Pascal , Visual Basic, and MATLAB. However, float in Python, Ruby, PHP, and OCaml and single in versions of Octave before 3.2 refer to double-precision numbers.
