Fixed width floating-point types (since C++23)

If the implementation supports any of the following ISO 60559 types as an extended floating-point type, then:

the corresponding macro is defined as 1 to indicate support,
the corresponding floating-point literal suffix is available, and
the corresponding type alias name is provided:

Types

The type std::bfloat16_t is known as Brain Floating-Point.

Unlike the fixed width integer types, which may be aliases to standard integer types, the fixed width floating-point types must be aliases to extended floating-point types (not float / double / long double), therefore not drop-in replacements for standard floating-point types.

[edit] Example

#include <stdfloat>
 
#if __STDCPP_FLOAT64_T__ != 1
    #error "64-bit float type required"
#endif
 
int main()
{
    std::float64_t f = 0.1f64;
}
