Alexei said:What is the efficiency you're talking about?
If it's precision and range, then the answer is obvious, because double
has more bits in mantissa and exponential.

Simon Morgan said:Do your own homework.
If that's homework, it's a lousy question.
Simon said:Agreed. But why else would he be asking it? Either he read it somewhere in
which case there would no doubt be an explanation or if it was some forum
he'd have posted a reply. If it's something that somebody told him then he
would have just asked them to qualify the statement. Look at all the other
questions he's posted and it seems pretty obvious that he expects the
group to do his homework for him.
Michael Mair said:However, it may be that he got this particular flea here, maybe
even from me: I regularly tell people using modern desktop computers
that they probably will fare far better with double. If worded poorly
or incautiously, something like that will lead to the misconception
that double is always and in all respects better/more efficient than
float.
