hello everyone,I am new to this programming world and I hope u guys call help in this...I would need a program in C++ which will convert floating point numbers into IEEE-754 format..for example +1.5 is represented as 00111111110000000000000000000000. Would really appreciate if anyone could help me in this..tHanks in advance

It is not a recommended procedure to cross post. Why? Simple, actually. It indicates that you have no confidence in the answers you might receive. Your goal is to trade off one opinion against another.

I ask you, in frankness, if you have to pose the question, in the first place, how can you distinguish between good and bad responses?

Have you consisded applying direct thought? It isn't a perfect solution, but it has a fairly decent probability of success.

You know what? Some people in here can even spell. They don't use 'u' for 'you'. They don't use 'b' for 'be'. Guess what? this IS a bad start, for you. Grow up; face it; solve it.

harryc, you need to make clearer and better posts if you want to receive decent answers. Try to use the correct grammar when posting in forums, especially in the non-gaming ones.

As for your question, I would propose some reading of the AND and OR operators in C++. I think it will be of great help. When you do, come back in here and ask for more.
