Stack
..., value.word1, value.word2 ..., result.word1, result.word2
Description
The value on the top of the operand stack must be of type long. It is popped from the operand stack and converted to a double result using IEEE 754 round-to-nearest mode. The result is pushed onto the operand stack.
Notes
The l2d instruction performs a widening primitive conversion (§2.6.2) that may lose precision because type double has only 53 mantissa bits.
