float and double is double.

in c, real support is compiler dependant, it may or may not be available.

Most of the time you'll see D's real type to be declared as 'long double' in C/C++, some compilers such as VC++ understand it to be syntactically different from 'double' but implement it using the same semantics (ie, 64bits).
