Python: Determine the largest and smallest integers, longs, floats


Max and Min of Number Types

Write a Python program to determine the largest and smallest integers, longs, and floats.

Sample Solution:

Python Code:

# Import the sys module to access system-related information.
import sys

# Print information about the float data type.
print("Float value information: ", sys.float_info)

# Print information about the integer data type (Note: there is no sys.int_info, this is incorrect).
print("\nInteger value information: ", sys.int_info)

# Print the maximum size of an integer that can be represented on the current system.
print("\nMaximum size of an integer: ", sys.maxsize)
        

Sample Output:

Float value information: sys.float_info(max=1.7976931348623157e+308, max_exp=1024, max_10_exp=308, min=2.2250
738585072014e-308, min_exp=-1021, min_10_exp=-307, dig=15, mant_dig=53, epsilon=2.220446049250313e-16, radix=2
, rounds=1)                                                                                                   
                                                                                                              
Integer value information: sys.int_info(bits_per_digit=30, sizeof_digit=4)                                   
                                                                                                              
Maximum size of an integer: 9223372036854775807
