## C++23: Fixed width floating-point types

The library also supports fixed-width floating-point types such as
`std::float32_t` and `std::float64_t`. E.g., you can write:
`std::float64_t`, `std::float32_t`, `std::float16_t`, and `std::bfloat16_t`.
E.g., you can write:

```C++
std::float32_t result;
