  2. printf - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Printf

    printf is a C standard library function that formats text and writes it to standard output. The name, printf is short for print formatted where print refers to output to a printer although the functions are not limited to printer output. The standard library provides many other similar functions that form a family of printf-like functions.

  3. 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.

  4. Type conversion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Type_conversion

    For example, 32 contiguous bits may be treated as an array of 32 Booleans, a 4-byte string, an unsigned 32-bit integer or an IEEE single precision floating point value. Because the stored bits are never changed, the programmer must know low level details such as representation format, byte order, and alignment needs, to meaningfully cast.

  5. Format (Common Lisp) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Format_(Common_Lisp)

    Format is a function in Common Lisp that can produce formatted text using a format string similar to the print format string.It provides more functionality than print, allowing the user to output numbers in various formats (including, for instance: hex, binary, octal, roman numerals, and English), apply certain format specifiers only under certain conditions, iterate over data structures ...

  7. String interpolation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/String_interpolation

    In some cases additional formatting specifiers can be used (as in printf), e.g. {apples:3}, and in some cases the formatting specifiers themselves can be interpolated, e.g. {apples:width}. Expansion of the string usually occurs at run time. Language support for string interpolation varies widely.

  8. Extended precision - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Extended_precision

    It was designed to support a 32-bit "single precision" format and a 64-bit "double-precision" format for encoding and interchanging floating-point numbers. The extended format was designed not to store data at higher precision, but rather to allow for the computation of temporary double results more reliably and accurately by minimising ...

  9. Type safety - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Type_safety

    In computer science, type safety and type soundness are the extent to which a programming language discourages or prevents type errors.Type safety is sometimes alternatively considered to be a property of facilities of a computer language; that is, some facilities are type-safe and their usage will not result in type errors, while other facilities in the same language may be type-unsafe and a ...
