If your code is working with CGFloat, then the warning isn't very helpful, 
because by using CGFloat you've elected to use 32-bit precision. If you want 
'double', use 'double'. The warning could be useful on 64-bit compiles to 
indicate the inadvertent use of 'float' where you meant 'double' or 'CGFloat', 
but if you're only using CGFloat then that won't happen.
