FLOAT statement

The float statement is used to define one or more variables and arrays of type float. The float statement behaves in the same way as the int statement, the only exception being that it reserves 32 bit memory locations instead of 16 bit memory locations. 32 bit variables of type float are used to store real (floating point) numbers in the range -9.99999₁₀53 to +9.99999₁₀53 to

NOTE: unlike long variable which have a accuracy of 9 digits, float variables only have an accuracy of 6 digits.

BEWARE: like the int statement, the float statement is used to define both local and global variables depending on the context in which it is used.

e.g.
	float	var1
	float	var1, var99[10], var3
