Floating point numbers are stored in scientific notation using base 2 not base 10.There are a limited number of bits so they are stored to a certain number of significant binary figures.There are various number of bytes (bits) used to store the numbers - the bits being split between the mantissa (the number) and the exponent (the power of 10 (being in the base of the storage - in binary, 10 equals 2 in decimal) by which the mantissa is multiplied to get the binary/decimal point back to where it should be), examples:Single precision (IEEE) uses 4 bytes: 8 bits for the exponent (encoding ±), 1 bit for the sign of the number and 23 bits for the number itself;Double precision (IEEE) uses 8 bytes: 11 bits for the exponent, 1 bit for the sign, 52 bits for the number;The Commodore PET used 5 bytes: 8 bits for the exponent, 1 bit for the sign and 31 bits for the number;The Sinclair QL used 6 bytes: 12 bits for the exponent (stored in 2 bytes, 16 bits, 4 bits of which were unused), 1 bit for the sign and 31 bits for the number.The numbers are stored normalised:In decimal numbers the digit before the decimal point is non-zero, ie one of {1, 2, ..., 9}.In binary numbers, the only non-zero digit is 1, so *every* floating point number in binary (except 0) has a 1 before the binary point; thus the initial 1 (before the binary point) is not stored (it is implicit).The exponent is stored by adding an offset of 2^(bits of exponent - 1), eg with 8 bit exponents it is stored by adding 2^7 = 1000 0000Zero is stored by having an exponent of zero (and mantissa of zero).Example 10 (decimal):10 (decimal) = 1010 in binary → 1.010 × 10^11 (all digits binary) which is stored in single precision as:sign = 0exponent = 1000 0000 + 0000 0011 = 1000 00011mantissa = 010 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 (the 1 before the binary point is explicit).Example -0.75 (decimal):-0.75 decimal = -0.11 in binary (0.75 = ½ + ¼) → 1.1 × 10^-1 (all digits binary) → single precision:sign = 1exponent = 1000 0000 + (-0000 0001) = 0111 1111mantissa = 100 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000Note 0.1 in decimal is a recurring binary fraction 0.1 (decimal) = 0.0001100110011... in binary which is one reason floating point numbers have rounding issues when dealing with decimal fractions.
Since 010 = 10, 010 of 1% = 10 of 1% = 10% or 0.1
0.010 is 0.007 thicker than 0.003
