Many languages have both a single precision (often called "float") and a double precision type.

Thus 7.2 and 15.9 for single and double precision respectively.

Some example range and gap values for given exponents in single precision:

SSE contains 70 new instructions, most of which work on single precision floating point data.

The prototype boards only support single precision floating point instructions.

Level I was single precision only and had a smaller set of commands.

The example multiplies two arrays of single precision floating point numbers.

Numbers were represented in ones' complement, single and double precision.

Both real and complex arithmetic are supported, with single and double precision.

In single precision (using the tanf function), the result will be 22877332.0.
