    Question Double

    If a double is a 64 bit floating point number, ranging in value from -1.79769313486231E308 to -4.94065645841247E-324 for negative values and from 4.94065645841247E-324 to 1.79769313486232E308 for positive values.

    The question is how many unique values does a double support?
