Hello,

What is the C equivalent for the D "float" type ?

Thanks in advance,

float and double is double.

in c, real support is compiler dependant, it may or may not
be available.

Most of the time you'll see D's real type to be declared as 'long 
double' in C/C++, some compilers such as VC++ understand it to be 
syntactically different from 'double' but implement it using the same 
semantics (ie, 64bits).
