# Description We made the decision that our floating point type should be referred to as `float` over `decimal`. Commands were updated by #9979 and #10320 Now make the internal codebase consistent in referring to this data type as `float`. Work for #10332 # User-Facing Changes `decimal` has been removed as a type name/symbol. Instead of ```nushell def foo [bar: decimal] decimal -> decimal {} ``` use ```nushell def foo [bar: float] float -> float {} ``` Potential effect of `SyntaxShape`'s `Display` implementation now also referring to `float` instead of `decimal` # Details - Rename `SyntaxShape::Decimal` to `Float` - Update `Display for SyntaxShape` to `float` - Update error message + fn name in dataframe code - Fix docs in command examples - Rename tests that are float specific - Update doccomment on `SyntaxShape` - Update comment in script # Tests + Formatting Updates the names of some tests |

Welcome to the standard library of `nushell`!
The standard library is a pure-nushell
collection of custom commands which
provide interactive utilities and building blocks for users writing casual scripts or complex applications.
To see what's here:
> use std
> help commands | select name usage | where name =~ "std "
╭────┬─────────────────────────────┬────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────╮
│ # │ name │ usage │
├────┼─────────────────────────────┼────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┤
│ 0 │ std assert │ Universal assert command │
│ 1 │ std assert equal │ Assert $left == $right │
. . .
│ 11 │ std clip │ put the end of a pipe into the system clipboard. │
│ 12 │ std dirs add │ Add one or more directories to the list. │
. . .

🧰 Using the standard library in the REPL or in scripts
All commands in the standard library must be "imported" into the running environment
(the interactive read-execute-print-loop (REPL) or a .nu
script) using the
use
command.
You can choose to import the whole module, but then must refer to individual commands with a std
prefix, e.g:
use std
std log debug "Running now"
std assert (1 == 2)
Or you can enumerate the specific commands you want to import and invoke them without the std
prefix.
use std ["log debug" assert]
log debug "Running again"
assert (2 == 1)
This is probably the form of import you'll want to add to your env.nu
for interactive use.
