//
// Special Notes:
// Some Functions as shown use "double" as a Value instead of "float" these vary for purposes of accuracy as shown Below.
// Float is short for "floating point", and just means a number with a point something on the end.
// The difference between the two is in the size of the numbers that they can hold.
// For float, you can have up to 7 digits in your number.
// For doubles, you can have up to 16 digits. To be more precise, here's the official size: ( float: 1.5 �10-45 to 3.4 �1038 ) ( double: 5.0 �10-324 to 1.7 �10308 )
//
// for the example below, the return value is being dumped to string.
