Hello,
I need to convert floating point (Single and Double) to an array of bytes (BCD) and vice versa.
Are there any existed implementation for it ?
Thanks,
Ido

PByte(@YourVariable)[0]
through
PByte(@YourVariable)[SizeOf(YourVariable)-1] ?
Or, if you have an array of SizeOf(YourVariable) bytes, you could do something like this:
Move(YourVariable, YourArray[0], SizeOf(YourVariable))
(note that you might want to take endianess into account, but I don't know if this applies to floats as it does to integers)

Events don't necessarily happen in chronological order; yet somehow they do persist to happen. Sometime.
