Answer 3

Nowadays most compilers use double as their standard floating point data type. It works the same, but has more precision than float.

If you don't know exactly what you're doing - and believe me, almost nobody does - you should also use double instead of float.

Otherwise you could cause bugs due to the constant conversions between float and double by the compiler.
