Answer:

In most programming languages, all basic data types are built-in. In addition, many languages also provide a set of composite data types. Opinions vary as to whether a built-in type that is composite should be considered "primitive".

The floating point numbers always represent the limited precision rational number that having a fractional part. These floating point numbers are then stored internally in a specific format.  

Explanation:

  • This format is equivalent to scientific notation. By default, it is in binary and sometimes it can be in decimal format.  
  • As these floating point numbers have very limited precision, only the subset of numbers is representable.  
  • By default, floating point number requires 4 bytes of memory space.
