Can someone tell me how to convert a real*4 Perkin-Elmer data to VAX
real*4. What I need is how the PE real data is stored (what bits have the
mantissa etc.). This info for the VAX would be handy, although I can just
as easily look the VAX data storage for real numbers myself (I'm lazy :-) ).
Many many thanks and blessings to all who respond...
