java float 向double 隐式转换精度丢失

Question

java float 向double 隐式转换精度会有丢失

    float f = 8.69f;
    int a = Float.floatToIntBits(f);
    String floatStr = Integer.toBinaryString(a);

    double d1 = f;
    long b = Double.doubleToLongBits(d1);
    String convertStr = Long.toBinaryString(b);

    double d2 = 8.69d;
    long c = Double.doubleToLongBits(d2);
    String doubleStr = Long.toBinaryString(c);

    System.out.println(floatStr);
    System.out.println(convertStr);
    System.out.println(doubleStr);

输出为
1000001000010110000101000111101 100000000100001011000010100011110100000000000000000000000000000 100000000100001011000010100011110101110000101000111101011100001

想问下，为什么在隐式转换的过程中，jvm只是单纯的拷贝float中的尾数部分，然后补0，而不是精确的计算尾数部分的值？

Answer 1

There is no loss of precision when adding 0 to the mantissa, this is how floating point numbers are represented

Answer 2

float occupies 4 bytes, while double occupies 8 bytes.
During the memory copy process, only 4 bytes are copied in, and the remaining bytes default to 0. (This is not necessarily the case in release mode and debug mode.)
