Convert to an unsigned int64 (on the stack as int64) and throw an exception on overflow. Base instruction 0x89 conv.ovf.u8.un: Convert unsigned to an unsigned int64 (on the stack as int64) and throw an exception on overflow. Base instruction 0x76 conv.r.un: Convert unsigned integer to floating-point, pushing F on stack. Base instruction 0x6B ...
Note that 1 represents equality in the last line above. This odd behavior is caused by an implicit conversion of i_value to float when it is compared with f_value. The conversion causes loss of precision, which makes the values equal before the comparison. Important takeaways: float to int causes truncation, i.e., removal of the fractional part.

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.
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.
C# 8.0 introduces null-coalescing ... floating point number ±1.401298E−45 through ±3.402823E+38 ... Each element is referenced by its index just like in C++ and ...
In addition to the assumption about bit-representation of floating-point numbers, the above floating-point type-punning example also violates the C language's constraints on how objects are accessed: [3] the declared type of x is float but it is read through an expression of type unsigned int.
Programming languages that support arbitrary precision computations, either built-in, or in the standard library of the language: Ada: the upcoming Ada 202x revision adds the Ada.Numerics.Big_Numbers.Big_Integers and Ada.Numerics.Big_Numbers.Big_Reals packages to the standard library, providing arbitrary precision integers and real numbers.
