Understanding Floating-Point Number Representations in Computing

This guide explores the representation of floating-point numbers in computing, including normalized and denormalized values, as well as special cases like Infinity and NaN (Not a Number). It explains how numbers close to zero are represented, the significance of the exponent and mantissa, and the implications of these representations for numerical computations. Gaining an understanding of floating-point formats is crucial for developers and engineers dealing with precision and performance in applications that involve mathematical calculations.
