Abstract
The article substantiates the use of floating point numbers in digital devices design. The paper describes this representation of numbers. The urgency of the use of this presentation is due to the fact that in modern computing systems occur computational operations over a very large and very small numbers. Since there is a need in the presentation and conducting operations on a finite set of zeros and ones, as a compromise between speed, size and accuracy of representations, scientists have proposed to use the format of floating point numbers.
