C# floating point variables come in two types: float and double. The following table compares these two types in terms of size, range, and accuracy.

Type	Size (bytes)	Range	Accuracy	In Use
float	8	1.5 x 10–45 to 3.4 x 1038	6–7 digits	float f = 1.2F;
double	16	5.0 x 10–324 to 1.7 x 10308	15–16 digits	double d = 1.2;
