    The binary32 (single) and binary64 (double) formats are two of the most common formats used today. The figure below shows the absolute precision for both formats over a range of values. This figure can be used to select an appropriate format given the expected value of a number and the required precision.

  3. printf - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Printf

    A format specifier starts with a % character and has one or more following characters that specify how to serialize a value. The format string syntax and semantics is the same for all of the functions in the printf-like family. Mismatch between the format specifiers and count and type of values can cause a crash or vulnerability.

    ^ The current default format is binary. ^ The "classic" format is plain text, and an XML format is also supported. ^ Theoretically possible due to abstraction, but no implementation is included. ^ The primary format is binary, but text and JSON formats are available. [8] [9]

    AutoHotkey: As the first character of continued line; any expression operators except ++ and --, and a comma or a period [7] Some form of line comment serves as line continuation. Turbo Assembler: \ m4: dnl; TeX: % Character position. Fortran 77: A non-comment line is a continuation of the prior non-comment line if any non-space character ...

    Most database and spreadsheet programs are able to read or save data in a delimited format. Due to their wide support, DSV files can be used in data exchange among many applications. A delimited text file is a text file used to store data, in which each line represents a single book, company, or other thing, and each line has fields separated ...

  7. Half-precision floating-point format - Wikipedia

    ILM was searching for an image format that could handle a wide dynamic range, but without the hard drive and memory cost of single or double precision floating point. [5] The hardware-accelerated programmable shading group led by John Airey at SGI (Silicon Graphics) used the s10e5 data type in 1997 as part of the 'bali' design effort.

  8. Quadruple-precision floating-point format - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quadruple-precision...

    The range of a double-double remains essentially the same as the double-precision format because the exponent has still 11 bits, [4] significantly lower than the 15-bit exponent of IEEE quadruple precision (a range of 1.8 × 10 308 for double-double versus 1.2 × 10 4932 for binary128).

  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.
