Subject: Precision of Doubles


Hi,

I can't find this information anywhere. Does anyone know what the precision
of doubles is? I guess the thing I specifically need to know is:  How many
decimal places (i.e., digits to the RIGHT of the decimal point) or
significant digits can a double hold? I need to do some math with some very
small numbers, and I'm trying to figure out if the doubles used in MathLib
will do the trick.

TIA,

Tom
