float y=98.7654;
printf("%f\n", y);
This is giving the output as 98.765404.
I cannot understand how the output ends with 04, can anybody please explain it?

In C, `98.7654` is a double and the line `float y = 98.7654;` converts the double to float. Try either `float y = 98.7654f;` or `double y = 98.7654;`. – ssd Oct 20 '20 at 18:29

@ssd: `float y = 98.7654f;` will have the same result as `float y = 98.7654;`. – Eric Postpischil Oct 20 '20 at 18:35
