A floating point (real) variable describes a number with integer and fractional parts. The biggest figure which can be stored correctly in RAM by a variable is 2^32-1 = 4294967295.
#*A real variable is defined with a "!" character postfix.
e.g.
<pre>a! = 3.141592654
</pre>
#*A real number uses 5 bytes of memory as storage. The format is described above. #*The address of a real variable can be found in BASIC by:
<pre>PRINT @a!
</pre>
