You can click to flip individual bits on float.exposed too, and they don't have “the same number of digits”…?

You can click to flip individual bits on float.exposed too, and they don't have “the same number of digits”…?
- mkl 7y agoThey do have the same number of decimal digits displayed. You can see it by clicking between "float" and "double": the decimal representation stays the same.
- TazeTSchnitzel 7y agoWhat is wrong with that?
- mkl 7y agoIt makes it look like they have the same precision (well also, going from 64 to 32 bits zeros out a whole lot, which contributes to that impression). In fact, both decimal representations are usually truncated, and don't accurately represent the binary floating point number. It's a neat and useful tool regardless, and I'm being a bit pedantic.
