    How do you make the comma disappear on an integer? For example, when I type: let year: Int = 2014

    When implicitly defining a variable like 1.0, does Swift define it as a double or a float?

    What happens to Floats that have numbers with more than 7 decimal places or Doubles with more than 15? Are they Rounded?
