NAME
float2txt - Converts big-endian binary float data to text.
SYNOPSIS
float2txt [
decimal_places ] [
-linenum ] [
-components <
N >]
DESCRIPTION
Reads big-endian binary floating point data from the standard input and outputs each
float as text in scientific notation with six decimal places by default, although the
number of decimal places can be specificied, optionally, as the first command line
argument.
EXAMPLES
Output as text the floats stored as binary data in test.Bfloat:
cat test.Bfloat | float2txt
The output has the form:
5.500000E01
-1.003820E-01
-1.230454E01
-1.447965E01
4.998373E00
:
Specify 8 decimal places rather than the default 6:
cat test.Bfloat | float2txt 8
The output has the form:
5.50000000E01
-1.00381965E-01
-1.23045428E01
-1.44796451E01
4.99837343E00
:
OPTIONS
The first option is a single integer for the number of decimal places in the output. It
is required if other options are specified.
-linenum
Print line numbers in output.
-components <N >
Assume output is voxel data with N components. Output will be annotated with voxel
number and component number.
