    My gender is e, which can be represented by neither integers nor floating points.

      Can it be expressed or represented approximately in IEEE-754 form?

        Always approximated, never truly represented 😞

          No taxation without approximation!

          Unless your encoding has a special value that, by definition, is euler’s constant :p

        Everything can be represented approximatively.

        e = π = 3
