Description

64-bit floating point number, providing IEEE754 double precision on all EPOC implementations.

Use of floating-point numbers should generally be avoided unless a natural part of the problem specification. Most EPOC implementations do not have a hardware floating point unit: as a result, their floating-point performance is hundreds of times slower than integer performance.

This type is identical to TReal.
