Converts a read-only byte span into a single-precision floating-point value.

public:
 static float ToSingle(ReadOnlySpan<System::Byte> value);
public static float ToSingle (ReadOnlySpan<byte> value);
static member ToSingle : ReadOnlySpan<byte> -> single
Public Shared Function ToSingle (value As ReadOnlySpan(Of Byte)) As Single

Parameters

value
ReadOnlySpan<Byte>

A read-only span containing the bytes to convert.

Returns

A single-precision floating-point value representing the converted bytes.

Exceptions

The length of value is less than the length of a Single value.

Parameters

value
Byte[]

An array of bytes.

startIndex
Int32

The starting position within value.

Returns

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

Exceptions

startIndex is greater than or equal to the length of value minus 3, and is less than or equal to the length of value minus 1.

value is null.

startIndex is less than zero or greater than the length of value minus 1.

Examples

The following code example converts elements of Byte arrays to Single values with the ToSingle method.

Remarks

The ToSingle method converts the bytes from index startIndex to startIndex + 3 to a Single 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.
