Defined in header <math.h>
typedef /*implementation defined*/ float_t		(since C99)
typedef /*implementation defined*/ double_t		(since C99)

The types float_t and double_t are floating types at least as wide as float and double, respectively, and such that double_t is at least as wide as float_t. The value of FLT_EVAL_METHOD determines the types of float_t and double_t.

FLT_EVAL_METHOD	Explanation
0	float_t and double_t are equivalent to float and double, respectively
1	both float_t and double_t are equivalent to double
2	both float_t and double_t are equivalent to long double
other	both float_t and double_t are implementation defined
