What's the difference between 'sine value', 'exponential value' and 'mantissa value' ?

    A floating-point number has four parts - a sign, a mantissa, a radix, and an exponent. The sign is either a 1 or -1. The mantissa, always a positive number, holds the significant digits of the floating-point number. The exponent indicates the positive or negative power of the radix that the mantissa and sign should be multiplied by. The four components are combined as follows to get the floating-point value:
    sign * mantissa * radix exponent
    0
