Description

TFloatRec declares a utility record that provides access to the attributes of a floating-point number.

The TFloatRec type declares a record that holds the attributes of a floating-point number. The record makes the attributes accessible for easy formatting or specialised numerical processing.

Exponent holds the floating-point number's exponent value.

Negative is set to True if the floating point number has a negative value.

Digits is a 21 element array of numeric characters representing the floating-point number mantissa value (its significant digits).

TFloatRec is used by the FloatToDecimal function to hold the results of the conversion of a floating-point value to its decimal representation.
