Floats aren’t reals, at best they are an approximation for certain calculations. +0 and -0 are defined and distinct floating point numbers. Floating point math is known to be problematic and does not evenly distribute numbers on the real line either. There are numerical methods used for reducing error on floating point operations when it is acceptable. Otherwise fixed point or intervals may be used. |
