endian-blob->ieee_float64 ENDIAN-BLOBprocedure
(ieee_float32->endian-blob NUMBER [* MODE]) => ENDIAN-BLOBprocedure
(ieee_float64->endian-blob NUMBER [* MODE]) => ENDIAN-BLOBprocedure

These procedures convert between endian blobs and IEEE floating point numbers of single or double precision, respectively. Exceptions are thrown if the given endian blobs are of incorrect size, or if the given numbers are too big to fit in the specified size. Optional argument MODE indicates the endianness of the resulting endian blob and can be one of MSBB or LSB. Default is MSB.
