Float

Float
The float keyword defines a variable as a 32-bit floating point number.

Typically, 32-bit floating point numbers can range in value from 1.40129846432481707e-45 to 3.40282346638528860e+38 (positive or negative).

Note
When defining a floating point number, you must include the decimal point and at least one number after the decimal point.

Example float fFloat=12.0; //good float fError=12;  //no good This code will cause a compile error (ERROR: MISMATCHED TYPES) on the line "float fError=12;".

Conversion
The float data type can be converted using the following functions.

Float To Integer
float fFloat=21.6; int nInteger=FloatToInt(fFloat);
 * nInteger = 21

Float To String
float fFloat=21.6; string sString=FloatToString(fFloat);
 * sString = "21.600000000"
