Absolutely wrong (if you would be in a C newsgroup you would even be
accused of trolling :-)))

double (in C) means: double precision floating point number

float in C means: floating point number

Float is guaranteed to store 6 significant digits (and usually noone uses
it except on some very weird architectures) while double's minimum is 10
significant digits.
