C# Error CS0594 – Floating-point constant is outside the range of type ‘{0}’

C# Error

CS0594 – Floating-point constant is outside the range of type ‘{0}’

Reason for the Error & Solution

Floating-point constant is outside the range of type ‘type’

A value was assigned to a floating-point variable that is too large for the variables of this data type. See for information about the range of values allowed in data types.

The following sample generates CS0594:

// CS0594.cs  
namespace MyNamespace  
{  
   public class MyClass  
   {  
      public static void Main()  
      {  
         float f = 6.77777777777E400;   // CS0594, value too large  
      }  
   }  
}
