Since there is so much interest on HN in floats lately and their software implementations, I wanted to show mine. It has no use and is just for teaching me floats and C++. Give me your thoughts.

Consider dropping the specializations for the type traits, given that it's undefined behavior:

https://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/types/is_fundamental

https://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/types/is_floating_point

https://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/types/is_arithmetic

https://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/types/is_scalar

https://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/types/is_object

Why is std::is_object even specialized here? Isn't it always true regardless?
