# Next And Previous Floats The `Float` class has two interesting methods for stepping forward or backwards through the numbers that can actually be *represented* by floats. This is handy since floats are not evenly spaced. Use `#next_float` to go forward ```ruby > 2.0 => 2.0 > _.next_float => 2.0000000000000004 > _.next_float => 2.000000000000001 > _.next_float => 2.0000000000000013 > _.next_float => 2.0000000000000018 ``` Use `#prev_float` to go backwards ```ruby > 2.0 => 2.0 > _.prev_float => 1.9999999999999998 > _.prev_float => 1.9999999999999996 > _.prev_float => 1.9999999999999993 > _.prev_float => 1.9999999999999991 ``` I cannot think of any practical use cases, but it is fun to know they are there if you need them.
