Hello. I like that D exposes to me the real type to maximally utilize the machine's numerical precision. Since I am writing a program (currently in C++ but I am thinking of moving to D) that has to handle lots of fractional numbers (calculating offset curves and such) I am wondering whether/when I should real instead of double or even any arguments in favour of staying with double (compatibility with C/C++?). Any pointers appreciated please? I checked the FAQ but it doesn't seem to mention this.
