Floating point is a numerical-interpretation system in which strings of digits or bits represent real numbers. A system of arithmetic is defined to permit these representations to be manipulated with resultant being similar to the arithmetic operations done over real numbers. The representation uses an explicit designation of where the radix point should be located relative to the string. In computing, fixed-point number representation is a real data type representing a number with a fixed number of digits before and after the radix.

Overpopulation occurs when the numbers of organisms exceed the carrying capacity of a habitat. It is of growing concern that the number of humans will grow too large and the earth will be unable to sustain their numbers. Normally, if the carrying capacity is exceeded, death occurs to maintain equilibrium. Humans, however, have devised mechanisms to circumvent the natural processes that would normally control their population levels. For example, the discovery of antibiotics and modern crop control ensure humans can exceed their carrying capacity. It is of increasing concern what implications this will have for planet earth and the Continue reading...
