static constexpr int max_digits10 | (since C++11) |
The value of std::numeric_limits<T>::max_digits10 is the number of base-10 digits that are necessary to uniquely represent all distinct values of the type T, such as necessary for serialization/deserialization to text. This constant is meaningful for all floating-point types.

double | DBL_DECIMAL_DIG orstd::ceil(std::numeric_limits<double>::digits * std::log10(2) + 1) |
long double | DECIMAL_DIG or LDBL_DECIMAL_DIG orstd::ceil(std::numeric_limits<long double>::digits * std::log10(2) + 1) |
Unlike most mathematical operations, the conversion of a floating-point value to text and back is exact as long as at least max_digits10 were used (9 for float, 17 for double): it is guaranteed to produce the same floating-point value, even though the intermediate text representation is not exact. It may take over a hundred decimal digits to represent the precise value of a float in decimal notation.
