|
| 12 | ||
| 10 | 13 | The number is the most common data type. Numbers are represented by blue wires. |
| 11 | 14 | |
| 12 | Numbers are stored as [[32-bit floats|https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Single-precision_floating-point_format]]. |
|
| 15 | Numbers are stored as 32-bit floats. To be precise, they are stored as [[IEEE-754 floating point numbers|https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Single-precision_floating-point_format#IEEE_754_standard:_binary32]]. |
|
| 13 | 16 | This gives numbers a maximum value of **340,282,346,638,528,859,811,704,183,484,516,925,440**. Likewise, their minimum value is the negative of that. |
| 14 | 17 | |
| 15 | 18 | Numbers have about 7 digits of precision. This means that numbers with 8 digits or more may begin to give slightly inaccurate results, e.g. when [[adding|Add Numbers]] numbers together. The margin of error is usually tiny, but gets larger the more digits you have. |
