explain about strictfp keyword in Java ?

Question

Anonymous User · Answer

If we want floating point values to be consistent across platforms, then we need to use "strictfp" as per IEEE 754 standard. When a program runs on multiple platforms, precision of floating point differ which in turn given different results. strictfp helps to enforce the precision across all platforms. For example:

Class Level - public strictfp class StrictFpModifierExample{}
Method Level - public strictfp void example() {}
