Further to the other helpful replies although gcc provides float.h (it's a
compiler header) the other file you mention is provied by the C library, libc
(glibc on most Linux systems). On Fedora this is in the glibc-headers package
and it contains many of the commonly used interfaces:

$ rpm -qf /usr/include/limits.h
glibc-headers-2.13.90-9.x86_64

$ rpm -ql $(rpm -qf /usr/include/limits.h ) | grep \
  '/usr/include/[[:alpha:]]*\.h$' | wc -l
100

$ rpm -ql $(rpm -qf /usr/include/limits.h ) | grep \
  '/usr/include/[[:alpha:]]*\.h$'
/usr/include/aio.h
/usr/include/aliases.h
/usr/include/alloca.h
/usr/include/ar.h
[...]
/usr/include/utmpx.h
/usr/include/values.h
/usr/include/wait.h
/usr/include/wchar.h
/usr/include/wctype.h
/usr/include/wordexp.h
/usr/include/xlocale.h
$
