In assembler, if you enter a floating point variable into LCD for instance you need to convert it into IEEE 754 32 bit format before you can use any floating point operations. Sure, if you're actually processing the value in assembler, you need to understand the format. But this thread is not about processing the floating point value - it's merely about writing it to EEPROM (and, presumably, reading it back again later). So, as far as storing the data is concerned, the format is irrelevant. You just need to store the bytes - it doesn't matter what they actually represent. Just the same as sending data over a comms link: the link doesn't care what the bytes actually mean - all that matters is that you get exactly the same stream of bytes out that you put in! |
