Alias std.bitmanip.FloatRep

Allows manipulating the fraction, exponent, and sign parts of a float separately. The definition is:

alias FloatRep = std.bitmanip.FloatingPointRepresentation!(float);
struct FloatRep
{
    union
    {
        float value;
        mixin(bitfields!(
                  uint,  "fraction", 23,
                  ubyte, "exponent",  8,
                  bool,  "sign",      1));
    }
    enum uint bias = 127, fractionBits = 23, exponentBits = 8, signBits = 1;
}
