Convert string with binary value to a IEEE754 Float.

I think a few lines of Python is justified here, e.g.

import struct
 
flt = '01000000 10001010 10111011 10001100'
 
f = int(flt.replace(' ', ''), 2)  # Remove spaces
print(struct.unpack('f', struct.pack('I', f))[0])

Result:

4.335393905639648

It should be fairly easy to incorporate into a PythonCaller.

If you don't mind python, struct is a standard library I think

import fme
import fmeobjects
import struct
 
def processFeature(feature):
    
    binary = feature.getAttribute('value').replace(" ","")
    float = struct.unpack('f', struct.pack('I', int(binary,2)))[0]
    feature.setAttribute("float",float)

If you don't mind python, struct is a standard library I think

import fme
import fmeobjects
import struct
 
def processFeature(feature):
    
    binary = feature.getAttribute('value').replace(" ","")
    float = struct.unpack('f', struct.pack('I', int(binary,2)))[0]
    feature.setAttribute("float",float)

Thanks again for this @ebygomm​ it works great. Providing a working example is really fantastic for people like me. I always have a really hard time to get anything Python related working, but tweaking something existing, what works, is doable.

I believe combining FME and Python will return far better solutions then FME only. I would love to do this more, but somehow learning it really gives me a struggle.

Note: I don't have a programming background. And I think a lot FME users are in the same boat, else they would have fixed most of their issues using Python.
