Meaning of Precision Isn't Documented
Hello,
We've been using XDMF to read data in HDF5 files into ParaView and it's been great! Thank you so much for all the functionality! One thing that I can't find any clarification on is what exactly "Precision" means. Does it mean the number of bytes or the number of digits? And if it's the number of bytes, then what is the difference between a Float with 8 precision and a Double with 8 precision? Could this be documented here: http://xdmf.org/index.php/XDMF_Model_and_Format
Thank you very much in advance!
Best wishes,
Nils
