These errors are commonly known as floating-point errors or precision errors.<\/p>\n<p><b>Floating-point errors primarily occur due to the use of finite precision to represent real numbers<\/b>. In C++, floating-point numbers are represented using the IEEE 754 standard, which is widely adopted in computer systems. This standard defines several formats for representing real numbers as approximations.<\/p>\n<p>While floating-point representations provide a good approximation of real numbers, they cannot represent all values with perfect accuracy.
