  2. Numeric precision in Microsoft Excel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Numeric_precision_in...

    The Double data type is 8 bytes, the Integer data type is 2 bytes, and the general purpose 16 byte Variant data type can be converted to a 12 byte Decimal data type using the VBA conversion function CDec. [12] Choice of variable types in a VBA calculation involves consideration of storage requirements, accuracy and speed.

  3. long double - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Long_double

    On some PowerPC systems, [11] long double is implemented as a double-double arithmetic, where a long double value is regarded as the exact sum of two double-precision values, giving at least a 106-bit precision; with such a format, the long double type does not conform to the IEEE floating-point standard.

  4. Primitive data type - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Primitive_data_type

    byte, short, int, long, char (integer types with a variety of ranges) float and double, floating-point numbers with single and double precisions; boolean, a Boolean type with logical values true and false; returnAddress, a value referring to an executable memory address. This is not accessible from the Java programming language and is usually ...

  5. 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 ...

  6. Visual Basic for Applications - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Visual_Basic_for_Applications

    Code written in VBA is compiled [6] to Microsoft P-Code (pseudo-code), a proprietary intermediate language, which the host applications (Access, Excel, Word, Outlook, and PowerPoint) store as a separate stream in COM Structured Storage files (e.g., .doc or .xls) independent of the document streams.

  7. Visual Basic (classic) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Visual_Basic_(classic)

    Visual Basic for Applications (VBA) [30] is a scripting language embedded in many Microsoft applications such as Microsoft Office, and third-party products like SolidWorks, AutoCAD, WordPerfect Office 2002, ArcGIS, Sage 300 ERP, and Business Objects Desktop Intelligence. There are small inconsistencies in the way VBA is implemented in different ...

  8. Computer number format - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computer_number_format

    Fixed-point formatting can be useful to represent fractions in binary. The number of bits needed for the precision and range desired must be chosen to store the fractional and integer parts of a number. For instance, using a 32-bit format, 16 bits may be used for the integer and 16 for the fraction.

  9. 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.
