Excuse me for my trivial question, but I'd like to know how
to convert byte array to float? What I could think of are
cast(float)(byte[]) and to!float(byte[]) but they do not work
for me. Thanks!
You want to include [] in the cast so:
byte[] b = [1, 2, 3, 4]
byte[] f = cast(float[])b;
writeln(b);
writeln(f);
You can even cast on a slice:
byte[] b = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8]
byte[] f = cast(float[])b[4..8];
Ah I miss read, if you want as a float, not a float array you
can do:
byte[] b = [1, 2, 3, 4];
float f = *cast(float*)b.ptr;
not sure if there is a better way
thanks for quick reply, i'll plug above lines into my codes.
