What is the largest integer that Pd can represent?

0

Because Pd uses a 32-bit float as the only internal representation of numbers, it is limited to 6 digits of accuracy. 999,999 is the largest number that can be represented in Pd without scientific notation. 999,999 in binary is 1111 0100 0010 0011 1111 But Pd cannot represent this number exactly 1111 1111 1111 1111 1111 (1,048,575) but it can represent this number exactly 0111 1111 1111 1111 1111 (524,287) Therefore Pd can represent 19-bits of integer accurately.
