This representation is not portable across architectures, so it should not be used to communicate floating point numbers across the network. The size of a floating point number may vary across architectures, so the number of bytes -that are generated may vary. If the value is out of range for the -machine's native representation, then the value of FLT_MIN or FLT_MAX +that are generated may vary. If the value overflows the +machine's native representation, then the value of FLT_MAX as defined by the system will be used instead. Because Tcl uses double-precision floating-point numbers internally, there may be some loss of precision in the conversion to single-precision. For example, |
