It's probably worth noting that floating point numbers are rational numbers (as well as real and complex).

The number hierarchy is usually ordered by inclusion:

  1. Natural
  2. Integers
  3. Rational
  4. Real
  5. Complex

It helps in explaining how each type of number contains the previous numbers.

Great page. Just trying to help. Thanks!
