System.BitConverter.ToSingle Method

Returns a single-precision floating point number converted from four bytes at a specified position in a byte array.

Syntax

public static float ToSingle (byte[] value, int startIndex)

Parameters

value
An array of bytes.
startIndex
The starting position within value.

Returns

A single-precision floating point number formed by four bytes beginning at startIndex.

Remarks

The BitConverter.ToSingle(Byte[], int) method converts the bytes from index startIndex to startIndex + 3 to a float value. The order of bytes in the array must reflect the endianness of the computer system's architecture; for more information, see the Remarks section of BitConverter.
