Edit Question
Title
Body
Can a double (of a given number of bytes, with a reasonable mantissa/exponent balance) always fully precisely hold the range of an unsigned integer of half that number of bytes? E.g. can an eight byte double fully precisely hold the range of numbers of a four byte unsigned int? What this will boil down to is if a two byte float can hold the range of a one byte unsigned int. A one byte unsigned int will of course be 0 -> 255.
