Choose exactly right range for float data type.
- A.
3.8e-38 to 3.8e+38
- B.
3.8e-34 to 3.8e+34
- C.
3.4e-38 to 3.4e+38
- D.
3.4e-34 to 3.4e+34
Correct Answer
C. 3.4e-38 to 3.4e+38Explanation
The correct answer is 3.4e-38 to 3.4e+38. This range represents the minimum and maximum values that can be stored in a float data type in most programming languages. The "e" notation represents scientific notation, where the number before "e" is multiplied by 10 raised to the power of the number after "e". In this case, the range starts at 3.4 multiplied by 10 raised to the power of -38, and ends at 3.4 multiplied by 10 raised to the power of +38. This range allows for a wide range of decimal values to be stored, but it is important to note that float data types have limited precision and may not be able to accurately represent very small or very large numbers.Rate this question:
