ILOG OPL Development Studio Language Reference Manual

FloatsShows how to declare floats in the OPL language.OPL also provides a subset of the real numbers as the basic data type float. Theimplementation of floats in OPL obeys the IEEE 754 standard for floating-point arithmeticand the data type float in OPL uses double-precision floating-point numbers. OPL also hasa predefined float constant, infinity, to represent the IEEE infinity symbol. Declarationsof floats are similar to declarations of integers.The declarationfloat f = 3.2;declares a float f whose value is 3.2.The value of the float can be specified by an arbitrary expression.I L O G O P L D E V E L O P M E N T S T U D I O L A N G U A G ER E F E R E N C E M A N U A L19
