Re: [julia-users] Numerical types and machine word size

[Júlio Hoffimann]

I'm following the analogy for Int:

if is(Int,Int64)
  typealias Float Float64
else
  typealias Float Float32
end

User code would be cleaner:

function foo(a::Float, b::Float)
end

vs.

function bar(a::Float64, b::Float64)
end
