# Float

> A class for representing floating point numbers as objects. Floats are approximations of real numbers written with decimals. If you don't need to work with decimals, use the Integer data type.

A class for representing floating point numbers as objects. Floats are approximations of real numbers written with decimals. If you don't need to work with decimals, use the Integer data type.

## Constructors

### Float()

```crmscript theme={null}
Float Float()
```

Default constructor.

### Float(Float)

```crmscript theme={null}
Float Float(Float value)
```

Pass a value to copy into a new object.

### Float(Integer)

```crmscript theme={null}
Float Float(Integer value)
```

Pass an Integer and have it converted to a Float object.

### Float(String)

```crmscript theme={null}
Float Float(String value)
```

Pass a String containing a number. The constructor will parse the text and create a Float object.

### Float(Long)

```crmscript theme={null}
Float Float(Long value)
```

Create a new Float instance from a Long instance.

## Methods

## toString(Integer)

Converts a float value to its string representation.

One of the most frequently used methods, typically when you are going to output something.

```crmscript theme={null}
String toString(Integer decimals)
```

**Returns:** [CRMScript.Global.String](CRMScript.Global.String)

<Note>
  You must always specify how many decimal digits you want.
</Note>

**Example:**

```crmscript theme={null}
Float pi = 3.14159;
for(Integer i = 0; i < 6; i++) {
\tprintLine(pi.toString(i));
}
```

## abs()

Converts a float value to its absolute value (the non-negative value of the number without regarding the sign).

```crmscript theme={null}
Float abs()
```

**Returns:** [CRMScript.Global.Float](CRMScript.Global.Float)

**Example:**

```crmscript theme={null}
Float i = -7.14;
print(i.abs().toString(2));
```

## floor()

Returns the Integer preceding the decimal separator. The floor of a Float is calculated by rounding downward to the nearest Integer.

```crmscript theme={null}
Integer floor()
```

**Returns:** [CRMScript.Global.Integer](CRMScript.Global.Integer)

**Example:**

```crmscript theme={null}
Float f = 13.456;
print(f.floor().toString())
```

## round()

Returns the Integer approximation of the Float without any decimals. It is calculated by rounding to the nearest Integer.

```crmscript theme={null}
Integer round()
```

**Returns:** [CRMScript.Global.Integer](CRMScript.Global.Integer)

**Example:**

```crmscript theme={null}
Float f = 13.79;
print(f.round().toString());
```

## isNull()

Returns true if it has no value and false if it does.

```crmscript theme={null}
Bool isNull()
```

**Returns:** [CRMScript.Global.Bool](CRMScript.Global.Bool)

<Note>
  A NULL/NUL/NIL Float is different from zero, in that it is conceptually without a value. However, when a null Float is used naively, CRMScript is usually forgiving and interprets it as zero.\`n
