static
void
putFloat32(
    char* buffer,
    float value);

Description

Load into the specified buffer the four‐byte IEEE single‐precision floating‐point number (in network byte order) comprised of the most‐significant four bytes of the specified value (in host byte order). The behavior is undefined unless buffer has sufficient capacity. Note that for non‐conforming platforms, this operation may be lossy.

Parameters
