The [[CVDMBF]] function decodes an 8-byte [[STRING]] generated by [[MKDMBF$]] (or read from a file) to [[DOUBLE]] numeric values.

: {{Parameter|result#}} = [[CVDMBF]]({{Parameter|stringData$}})

{{PageDescription}}
|
|
* ''CV'' functions ([[CVD]], [[CVS]], [[CVI]], [[CVL]], [[CVDMBF]], [[CVSMBF]]) are used to convert values encoded by ''MK$'' functions ([[MKD$]], [[MKS$]], [[MKI$]], [[MKL$]], [[MKDMBF$]], [[MKSMBF$]]).
|
|
* '''QB64''' has [[_CV]] and [[_MK$]] functions which can also deal with extended [[Data types|data types]].
|
|
* [[DOUBLE]] values can range up to 15 decimal point digits. Decimal point accuracy depends on whole value places taken.

{{CodeStart}}
|
|
a# = 77000.24523213
|
|
{{Cl|PRINT}} "Value of a#:"; a#
|
|
b$ = {{Cl|MKDMBF$}}(a#)
|
|
{{Cl|PRINT}} "Value of a# encoded using MKDMBF$: "; b$
|
|
{{Cl|PRINT}} "The string above, decoded using CVDMBF:"; {{Cl|CVDMBF}}(b$)
|
|
{{CodeEnd}}
|
|
{{OutputStart}}
|
|
Value of a#: 77000.24523213
|
|
|
|
Value of a# encoded using MKDmbf$: 5─c▼d▬æ
|
|
|
|
The string above, decoded using CVDMBF: 77000.24523213
|
|
{{OutputEnd}}
|
|
:Since the representation of a double-precision number can use up to 15 ASCII characters (fifteen bytes), writing to a file using [[MKDMBF$]] conversion, and then reading back with the [[CVDMBF]] conversion can save up to 7 bytes of storage space.
