  31       The <code class="computeroutput"><span class="keyword">typedef</span> <span class="identifier">float_least</span><span class="special">#</span><span class="identifier">_t</span></code>, with
  32       # replaced by the width, designates a floating-point type with a <span class="bold"><strong>width of at least # bits</strong></span>, such that no floating-point
  33       type with lesser size has at least the specified width. Thus, <code class="computeroutput"><span class="identifier">float_least32_t</span></code> denotes the smallest floating-point
  34       type with a width of at least 32 bits.
  35     </p>
  36 <p>
  37       Minimum-width floating-point types are provided for all existing exact-width
  38       floating-point types on a given platform.
  39     </p>
  40 <p>
  41       For example, if a platform supports <code class="computeroutput"><span class="identifier">float32_t</span></code>
  42       and <code class="computeroutput"><span class="identifier">float64_t</span></code>, then <code class="computeroutput"><span class="identifier">float_least32_t</span></code> and <code class="computeroutput"><span class="identifier">float_least64_t</span></code>
  43       will also be supported, etc.
