How to convert the following hex string to float (single precision 32-bit) in Python?
I have a csv file containing numerical values such as 1524.449677. There are always exactly 6 decimal places.
I know that most decimals don’t have an exact floating point representation (Is floating point math broken?).
Python now uses David Gay’s algorithm for finding the shortest floating point representation that doesn’t change its value. This should help mitigate some of the confusion surrounding binary floating point numbers.
I have a binary file that I have to parse and I’m using Python. Is there a way to take 4 bytes and convert it to a single precision floating point number?
I am reading in data from a file, modify it and write it to another file. The new file will be read by another program and therefore it is crucial to carry over the exact formatting
I know rounding errors happen in floating point arithmetic but can somebody explain the reason for this one:
I am developing a class for the analysis of microtiter plates. The samples are described in a separate file and the entries are used for an ordered dictionary. One of the keys is pH, which is usually given as float. e.g 6.8
What are its smallest and biggest values in python?
I’ve typed this into python shell:
