(Per question last night)
Well, I *thought* this was the way:
% perl -le 'print unpack"b*",pack "f*",3.14159'
00000010100100101111000000001011
But I don't understand this:
% perl -le 'print unpack"b*",pack "f*",0'
00000000000000000000000000000000
That's not right, is it?
Looks right for other cases, though.
