My BIN to FLOAT (IEEE754), the first one doesn't work for me:
<?php
function binToFloat($bin) {
if(strlen($bin) > 32) {
return false;
} else if(strlen($bin) < 32) {
$bin = str_repeat('0', (32 - strlen($bin))) . $bin;
}
$sign = 1;
if(intval($bin[0]) == 1) {
$sign = -1;
}
$binExponent = substr($bin, 1, 8);
$exponent = -127;
for($i = 0; $i < 8; $i++) {
$exponent += (intval($binExponent[7 - $i]) * pow(2, $i));
}
$binBase = substr($bin, 9);
$base = 1.0;
for($x = 0; $x < 23; $x++) {
$base += (intval($binBase[$x]) * pow(0.5, ($x + 1)));
}
$float = (float) $sign * pow(2, $exponent) * $base;
return $float;
}
?>
