The [[CVDMBF]] function decodes a 4-byte [[STRING]] generated by [[MKSMBF$]] (or read from a file) to [[SINGLE]] numeric values.

: {{Parameter|result!}} = [[CVSMBF]]({{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]].
|
|
* [[SINGLE]] values can range up to 7 decimal point digits. Decimal point accuracy depends on whole value places taken.

''Example 1:'' Showcases the reduced space to store an encoded number.

{{CodeStart}}
|
|
a! = 700.2213
|
|
{{Cl|PRINT}} "Value of a!:"; a!
|
|
b$ = {{Cl|MKSMBF$}}(a!)
|
|
{{Cl|PRINT}} "Value of a! encoded using MKSMBF$: "; b$
|
|
{{Cl|PRINT}} "The string above, decoded using CVSMBF:"; {{Cl|CVDMBF}}(b$)
|
|
{{CodeEnd}}
|
|
{{OutputStart}}
|
|
Value of a!: 700.2213
|
|
Value of a# encoded using MKSMBF$: *♫/è
|
|
The string above, decoded using CVSMBF: 700.2213
|
|
{{OutputEnd}}
|
|
:Since the representation of a double-precision number can use up to 7 ASCII characters (seven bytes), writing to a file using [[MKSMBF$]] conversion, and then reading back with the [[CVSMBF]] conversion can save up to 3 bytes of storage space.
