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.
