7 Answers
Single is not the correct answer as it rounds the decimal part.. For instance 2.0799999 will be converted to 2.08. If there are no constraints regarding the rounding then it should be good.
Double can be used as the .NET Equivalent Datatype for Real Datatype of SQL Server
Double gets the exact value with out Rounding
Its Equivalent is Single. Single is A floating point number within the range of -3.40E +38 through 3.40E +38.
Here is the latest from MSDN describes all SqlDbType and C# Equivalents
the answer is Single or float. (depending on style.)
this is like the difference between String and string [source: ReSharper code suggestion "use type keyword" when using Single. it suggested using float.
