Then data will be lost. Quite often, at least in Java, the compiler will protest at compile time, basically forcing you to rethink your strategy.
float pi = 3.142; // Note: pi is an irrational number, there is no "exact" value of pi
it is the same as an int, String, or any of the others:float myVar = 5.7f;If you try to assign a decimal number you must place an "f" at the end, otherwise Java will assume you are trying to assign a double.
THIS IS FOR JAVA i don't know about anything about other languages yes it can be assignedthe syntax is:int (number) = (float) numberFOR EXAMPLE:int = a;a = (float ) 5.5;if the (float) is not there then in Java it gives an error saying precision loss of data type
Just use a double instead of a float. Double allows for a larger number and you won't produce that error.
Yes, an integer can be assigned as a float value.But it get stored as a float value, that is an implicit type conversion occurs during compilation.Smaller data types are convertible to larger data types.eg:float b=12;// an integer constant is assigned to a float variableprintf("%f",b);// when printing b it will print as 12.000000
When assigning a literal value, such as 5.628, to a float variable, you can avoid the decimal truncation warning by either using the float form of the constant (float var = 5.628f), typecasting the assignment (float var = (float) 5.628), or by making the variable double (double var = 5.628).
float pi = 3.142; // Note: pi is an irrational number, there is no "exact" value of pi
A float variable can store both positive and negative numbers.

In a float and sink experiment, the density of the liquid is considered a dependent variable. When the density is low, the solid may sink more easily.

float myVariable = 20.1234;

It's one of the built-in data-types, a float-type variable can hold a floating-point number.
it is when a egg float on the matter of something making it float.
