title: Is there any replacement of long double in java?
body: <p>I was reading about data types in C. I found the range of <code>long double</code> is more than that of <code>double</code> in java. For very huge number we can use long double in C. If I want to store the same number in java what we have to do? which datatype we can use? </p>
  
  <blockquote>
    <p>double in java takes 8 bytes(64 bits) IEEE 754. it Covers a range from
    4.94065645841246544e-324d to 1.79769313486231570e+308d (positive or negative).</p>
