It's known that in .NET size of both long and double is 8 bytes. However, double can store significantly larger number than long. How can it be, considering that double also needs to store data on digits after decimal point? Shorter version of the question: Math.Pow(2, 64) == long.MaxValue Math.Pow(2, 64) < double.MaxValue ...
