This solution replaces the float with a double. Furthermore, it uses an assertion to guarantee that the double type can represent any int without loss of precision for implementations where the radix of the exponent representation is 2. (See INT19INT35-C. Correctly compute Use correct integer widths for the definition and rationale of the UWIDTH() macro):
