Double and Float format displaying different results

Double and Float format displaying different results

I thought that the difference between double and float were the precision
of the decimals. However, I am getting strange results with using double
and float and they are no where close to one another.
The first segment of code is used with the float format producing the
correct results:
#include <stdio.h>
#define ABSOLUTE_VALUE(number) ( ((number) < 0) ? -(number) : (number) )
int main (void)
{
float number, absNumber;
printf ("What number do you want to check the absolute value for? : ");
scanf ("%f", &number);
absNumber = ABSOLUTE_VALUE(number);
printf ("The absolute value of %.2f is %.2f\n", number, absNumber);
return 0;
}
Output:
What number do you want to check the absolute value for? : -3
The absolute value of -3.00 is 3.00
The second segment of code is used with the double format producing
incorrect results:
#include <stdio.h>
#define ABSOLUTE_VALUE(number) ( ((number) < 0) ? -(number) : (number) )
int main (void)
{
double number, absNumber;
printf ("What number do you want to check the absolute value for? : ");
scanf ("%d", &number);
absNumber = ABSOLUTE_VALUE(number);
printf ("The absolute value of %.2d is %.2d\n", number, absNumber);
return 0;
}
Output:
What number do you want to check the absolute value for? : -3
The absolute value of -03 is 2147344384
