There are only so may unique floating point numbers that fall into that range. Say I scale the data up to [0, FLT_MAX]-- the finite number of possible floating point values has increased dramatically.

Floating point numbers are a way that computers can handle very large numbers (think millions, billions, trillions, and so on) or very small ones (think lots of zeros after decimal points) while ...

FLOPS stands for floating-point operations per second. Floating point is a method of encoding real numbers with most precision available on computers. Computation of floating-point numbers is often ...
