Quck Question Long Vs Double

[Kavy]

Hello all, quick question

I did some checking and Double is a "double-precision floating-point"
while long is a "long integer"

When would you use double instead of long and single instead of integer?

Thanks!

Well, probably when you didn't want to use an integer.

Single/Double are different from Long Integer/Integer, the latter are for whole numbers, the former for numbers with decimal parts.
