Floating-point arithmetic is a method of representing real numbers in a way that can support a wide range of values. This method is essential in computer science as it allows for the representation and manipulation of very large and very small numbers.
Floating-point numbers are a numerical representation that includes a fractional component, widely used in computing for representing real numbers and performing precise calculations.
Precision refers to the degree of exactness in numerical representation and repeatable measurements in various disciplines including mathematics, statistics, computing, and science.
