Program/Source Code:

The source code to demonstrate the Float64bits() function is given below. The given program is compiled and executed successfully.

// Golang program to demonstrate
// the Float64bits() function

package main

import (
	"fmt"
	"math"
)

func main() {
	out1 := math.Float64bits(0)
	out2 := math.Float64bits(1)
	out3 := math.Float64bits(2)
	out4 := math.Float64bits(2.5)

	fmt.Println(out1)
	fmt.Println(out2)
	fmt.Println(out3)
	fmt.Println(out4)
}

Output:

4611686018427387904
4612811918334230528

Explanation:

In the above program, we declare the package main. The main package is used to tell the Go language compiler that the package must be compiled and produced the executable file. Here, we imported the fmt package that includes the files of package fmt then we can use a function related to the fmt package.

In the main() function, we find the IEEE 754 representation of given numbers and print on the console screen.
