 ===== Float comparison =====
-Floating-point numbers are almost always stored inaccurately in computers' memory. This is because of the [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IEEE_754||IEEE-754]] standard that is used to store the number.
+Floating-point numbers are almost always stored inaccurately in computers' memory. This is because of the [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IEEE_754|IEEE-754]] standard that is used to store the number.
-It also means that for example, 0.2 + 0.1 is not equal to 0.3; rather it is equal to 0.30000000000000004.
-Since computers are exact in comparison by default, you can see how you can run into issues with this.
