@protobufjs/float

Reads / writes floats / doubles from / to buffers in both modern and ancient browsers. Fast.

API

• writeFloatLE(val: number, buf: Uint8Array, pos: number)
  Writes a 32 bit float to a buffer using little endian byte order.

• writeFloatBE(val: number, buf: Uint8Array, pos: number)
  Writes a 32 bit float to a buffer using big endian byte order.

• readFloatLE(buf: Uint8Array, pos: number): number
  Reads a 32 bit float from a buffer using little endian byte order.

• readFloatBE(buf: Uint8Array, pos: number): number
  Reads a 32 bit float from a buffer using big endian byte order.

• writeDoubleLE(val: number, buf: Uint8Array, pos: number)
  Writes a 64 bit double to a buffer using little endian byte order.

• writeDoubleBE(val: number, buf: Uint8Array, pos: number)
  Writes a 64 bit double to a buffer using big endian byte order.

• readDoubleLE(buf: Uint8Array, pos: number): number
  Reads a 64 bit double from a buffer using little endian byte order.

• readDoubleBE(buf: Uint8Array, pos: number): number
  Reads a 64 bit double from a buffer using big endian byte order.

Performance

There is a simple benchmark included comparing raw read/write performance of this library (float), float's fallback for old browsers, the ieee754 module and node's buffer. On an i7-2600k running node 6.9.1 it yields:
