Can I compare a floating-point number to an integer?
Will the float compare to integers in code?
float f; // f has a saved predetermined floating-point value to it if (f >=100){__asm__reset...etc} Also, could I…
float f; int x = 100; x+=f; I have to use the floating point value f received from an attitude reference system to adjust a position value x that controls a PWM signal to correct for attitude.
The first one will work fine. 100 will be converted to a float, and IEE754 can represent all integers exactly as floats, up to about 223.
The second one will also work but will be converted into an integer first, so you’ll lose precision (that’s unavoidable if you’re turning floats into integers).
