Chapter: Java Basics Last Updated: 25-08-2017 08:12:59 UTC

Program:

            /* ............... START ............... */
                
public class JavaMultiplyFloatingPointNumbers {

	public static void main(String[] args) {

		float value1 = 4.5f;
		float value2 = 5.0f;

		float result = value1 * value2;

		System.out.println("Result: " + result);
	}

}

                /* ............... END ............... */
        

Output

Result: 22.5

Notes:

• The JVM's floating-point support adheres to the IEEE-754 1985 floating-point standard. This standard defines the format of 32-bit and 64-bit floating-point numbers and defines the operations upon those numbers. In the JVM, floating-point arithmetic is performed on 32-bit floats and 64-bit doubles.
