You declare a floating point variable using the float or double keyword for a single- or double-precision floating point variable, respectively:

float a;

double b;

You reference a floating-point variable just like any other scalar variable by using the variable's name in a compatible expression, e.g.

a += 2;

b /= a;

Floating point literals use a period for the decimal point, no "thousands separator," and use the letter 'e' to denote a power of ten, e.g.

a = 0.123;

b = 123e-3;

Both a and b now have the same value, 123 times 10 to the power of -3 (which equals 0.123).

How many values can store a variable at a time?

The number of values a variable can store at a time depends on the data type of the variable. For example, a variable of type int (integer) in many programming languages can store a single integer value at a time. Similarly, a variable of type float (floating-point number) can store a single floating-point value. Other data types like arrays or lists can store multiple values at a time. The capacity of a variable to store values is determined by its data type and memory allocation.

What is a pointer variable in C?

Pointer variables point to data variables. They are mostly used to point to dynamically allocated data variables, but can actually point to anything (e.g. statically allocated variables, array elements, anywhere inside a variable, program machine code, I/O device descriptors, nonexistent memory). Misuse of pointer variables, either unintentionally or intentionally, is a major cause of nearly impossible to debug software problems in programs written in C (and C++).

How would you write 136 divided by c?

To express 136 divided by ( c ), you would write it as ( \frac{136}{c} ). This notation indicates that 136 is being divided by the variable ( c ). Alternatively, you could also write it as ( 136 \div c ).
