Cold Help System: Programming: ColdC Reference Manual: Language Structure: Data Types: Float


A float is a real number (in mathematical terms). A float is logically true if it is not zero. Floats are denoted in ColdC with two numbers seperated by a period and optionally preceded with a plus (+) or minus (-) sign. Floats may be printed in scientific notation--both forms are acceptable. The interpreter will print floats in whichever format will give the greatest precision with the least amount of space.
