# tensorplay.get_default_dtype

Source: https://www.tensorplay.cn/docs/generated/tensorplay.get_default_dtype.html

```python
tensorplay.get_default_dtype() → tensorplay.dtype
```

Get the current default floating point [tensorplay.dtype](/docs/generated/tensorplay.DType.html#tensorplay.DType).

Example:

```
>>> tensorplay.get_default_dtype()  # initial default for floating point is tensorplay.float32
tensorplay.float32
>>> tensorplay.set_default_dtype(tensorplay.float64)
>>> tensorplay.get_default_dtype()  # default is now changed to tensorplay.float64
tensorplay.float64
```
