    During Ariane 5 launch, the software failure occurred when an attempt to convert a 64-bit floating point number to convert a 64-bit floating point number representing the horizontal velocity to a signed/fixed 16-bit integer caused the number to overflow (become too big). The floating point number was too large to be represented in 16-bit (i.e. Ariane 4 software) and this hence caused a numeric overflow. The maximum value that can be represented in 16-bit is 32768. And the horizontal velocity which

That brings us to the present, 1 day later (at least I think) floating over the ocean. My trip has been pretty straight forward I think.

    digits after and before the decimal is fixed is called fixed point number representation. But the decimal point can float in floating point representation, hence given the name floating point. To represent extremely large and small values like distance between sun and earth or mass of electron, floating point numbers are used. To achieve better accuracy and larger range floating point representation is used although it is slower than fixed point
