Examples are `-2.4`, `0.1`, `3.14`, `16.984025` and `1024.0`. + +Different floating-point types can store different numbers of digits after the digit separator - this is referred to as its precision. + +C# has three floating-point types: + +- `float`: 4 bytes (~6-9 digits precision). Written as `2.45f`. +- `double`: 8 bytes (~15-17 digits precision). This is the most common type. Written as `2.45` or `2.45d`. +- `decimal`: 16 bytes (28-29 digits precision). Normally used when working with monetary data, as its precision leads to less rounding errors. Written as `2.45m`. + +As can be seen, each type can store a different number of digits. This means that trying to store PI in a `float` will only store the first 6 to 9 digits (with the last digit being rounded). + +## While Loops + +In this exercise you may also want to use a loop. There are several ways to write loops in C#, but the `while` loop is most appropriate here: + +```csharp +int x = 23; + +while (x > 10) +{ + // Execute logic if x > 10 + x = x - 2; +} +``` + +## Do While Loops + +An less commonly used alternative to the above syntax is a `do-while` loop: + +```csharp +int x = 23; + +do +{ + // Execute logic if x > 10 + x = x - 2; +} while (x > 10) +``` + +## Instructions + +In this exercise you'll be working with savings accounts.
