17 years agohere decimal means the equivalent real value...........
what i want to do is ............ simply to convert a 32 bit binary(ieee-754) to its equivalent float(real value)...........it is obvious that an ieee-754-binary is represented as 1st bit as sign next 8 bits for exponent and the rest 23 bits for mantisa or fraction part........ and equivalnt is a float value(eg:7.35)
