In my experience float is well understood by very few of those who use it. I have had to explain multiple times to people who have been using floats for years that just because floats have guaranteed minimum 6 significant digits doesn't mean that the result of your calculations will be correct to 6 significant digits. |

I have been thinking of running a floating-point school just for this reason. Lots of gotchas.
