Hi, all. Can't find this anywhere, so...
On a G3/G4, what is the range of values for double? I'm pretty sure I
recall an int being 32-bit, so would a double be 64-bit? Or is a float
64-bit, making a double 128-bit?
I'm trying to figure out just exactly how many digits I should specify for
pi so it won't round off on the end and so I can have it as precise as
possible.
