Float
===================================================================

.. currentmodule:: gi.repository.GObject





.. class:: Float(*args, **kwargs)
   :no-contents-entry:






A wrapper to force conversion to G_TYPE_FLOAT instead of G_TYPE_DOUBLE when
used in GValue APIs.





Methods
-------

.. rst-class:: interim-class

.. class:: Float
   :no-index:


   .. method:: as_integer_ratio()

      Return a pair of integers, whose ratio is exactly equal to the original float.

      The ratio is in lowest terms and has a positive denominator.  Raise
      OverflowError on infinities and a ValueError on NaNs.

      >>> (10.0).as_integer_ratio()
      (10, 1)
      >>> (0.0).as_integer_ratio()
      (0, 1)
      >>> (-.25).as_integer_ratio()
      (-1, 4)











   .. method:: conjugate()

      Return self, the complex conjugate of any float.











   .. method:: fromhex(string, /)

      Create a floating-point number from a hexadecimal string.

      >>> float.fromhex('0x1.ffffp10')
      2047.984375
      >>> float.fromhex('-0x1p-1074')
      -5e-324








      :param string: 




   .. method:: hex()

      Return a hexadecimal representation of a floating-point number.

      >>> (-0.1).hex()
      '-0x1.999999999999ap-4'
      >>> 3.14159.hex()
      '0x1.921f9f01b866ep+1'











   .. method:: is_integer()

      Return True if the float is an integer.
