That depends on how you store it. Each number can be written in infinitely many ways, for example 12, 1.2E1, and 0.012E3 all are “twelve” In (binary) IEEE floats, the canonical way to write floats is significant × 2^exponent with 1 ≤

If you use a thread-local data structure, your allocator can pretend that it is running on a single-core, single-task system. If you use a CPU-local data structure, you must handle the case where, mid-way through a call to your allocator, t
