Constructors

from_be_bytes(bytes : Bytes) : Float32

Create a Float32 value from its representation as a byte array in big endian.

bytes = Bytes[0x41, 0x48, 0x00, 0x00]
Float32.from_be_bytes(bytes)
# => 12.5_f32
Source
from_bytes(bytes : Bytes, format : IO::ByteFormat = IO::ByteFormat::SystemEndian) : Float32

Create a Float32 value from its representation as a byte array.

Source
from_le_bytes(bytes : Bytes) : Float32

Create a Float32 value from its representation as a byte array in little endian.

bytes = Bytes[0x00, 0x00, 0x48, 0x41]
Float32.from_le_bytes(bytes)
# => 12.5_f32
Source
from_ne_bytes(bytes : Bytes) : Float32

Create a Float32 value from its representation as a byte array in native endian.

Instance methods

to_be_bytes

Return the memory representation of this number as a byte array in big-endian (network) byte order.

bytes = "12.5_f32".to_be_bytes
# => Bytes[0x41, 0x48, 0x00, 0x00]
Source
to_bytes(format : IO::ByteFormat = IO::ByteFormat::SystemEndian) : Bytes

Return the memory representation of this number as a byte array using the specified format

Source
to_le_bytes

Return the memory representation of this number as a byte array in little-endian byte order.

bytes = 12.5_f32.to_le_bytes
# => Bytes[0x00, 0x00, 0x48, 0x41]
Source
to_ne_bytes

Return the memory representation of this number as a byte array in native-endian byte order.
