The multi-byte sequences produced and used by numeric conversion
routines are always big-endian. Endianness can be changed during
reading and writing bytes using read-bytes
and
write-bytes
See read-bytes.
The sign of the length argument to bytes/integer conversion procedures determines the signedness of the number.
Converts the first (abs n)
bytes of big-endian bytes array
to an integer. If n is negative then the integer coded by the
bytes are treated as two’s-complement (can be negative).
(bytes->integer (bytes 0 0 0 15) -4) ⇒ 15 (bytes->integer (bytes 0 0 0 15) 4) ⇒ 15 (bytes->integer (bytes 255 255 255 255) -4) ⇒ -1 (bytes->integer (bytes 255 255 255 255) 4) ⇒ 4294967295 (bytes->integer (bytes 128 0 0 0) -4) ⇒ -2147483648 (bytes->integer (bytes 128 0 0 0) 4) ⇒ 2147483648
Converts the integer n to a byte-array of (abs n)
bytes. If n and len are both negative, then the bytes in the
returned array are coded two’s-complement.
(bytes->list (integer->bytes 15 -4)) ⇒ (0 0 0 15) (bytes->list (integer->bytes 15 4)) ⇒ (0 0 0 15) (bytes->list (integer->bytes -1 -4)) ⇒ (255 255 255 255) (bytes->list (integer->bytes 4294967295 4)) ⇒ (255 255 255 255) (bytes->list (integer->bytes -2147483648 -4)) ⇒ (128 0 0 0) (bytes->list (integer->bytes 2147483648 4)) ⇒ (128 0 0 0)
bytes must be a 4-element byte-array. bytes->ieee-float
calculates and returns the
value of bytes interpreted as a big-endian IEEE 4-byte (32-bit) number.
(bytes->ieee-float (bytes 0 0 0 0)) ⇒ 0.0 (bytes->ieee-float (bytes #x80 0 0 0)) ⇒ -0.0 (bytes->ieee-float (bytes #x40 0 0 0)) ⇒ 2.0 (bytes->ieee-float (bytes #x40 #xd0 0 0)) ⇒ 6.5 (bytes->ieee-float (bytes #xc0 #xd0 0 0)) ⇒ -6.5 (bytes->ieee-float (bytes 0 #x80 0 0)) ⇒ 11.754943508222875e-39 (bytes->ieee-float (bytes 0 #x40 0 0)) ⇒ 5.877471754111437e-39 (bytes->ieee-float (bytes 0 0 0 1)) ⇒ 1.401298464324817e-45 (bytes->ieee-float (bytes #xff #x80 0 0)) ⇒ -inf.0 (bytes->ieee-float (bytes #x7f #x80 0 0)) ⇒ +inf.0 (bytes->ieee-float (bytes #x7f #x80 0 1)) ⇒ 0/0 (bytes->ieee-float (bytes #x7f #xc0 0 0)) ⇒ 0/0
bytes must be a 8-element byte-array. bytes->ieee-double
calculates and returns the
value of bytes interpreted as a big-endian IEEE 8-byte (64-bit) number.
(bytes->ieee-double (bytes 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0)) ⇒ 0.0 (bytes->ieee-double (bytes #x80 0 0 0 0 0 0 0)) ⇒ -0.0 (bytes->ieee-double (bytes #x40 0 0 0 0 0 0 0)) ⇒ 2.0 (bytes->ieee-double (bytes #x40 #x1A 0 0 0 0 0 0)) ⇒ 6.5 (bytes->ieee-double (bytes #xC0 #x1A 0 0 0 0 0 0)) ⇒ -6.5 (bytes->ieee-double (bytes 0 8 0 0 0 0 0 0)) ⇒ 11.125369292536006e-309 (bytes->ieee-double (bytes 0 4 0 0 0 0 0 0)) ⇒ 5.562684646268003e-309 (bytes->ieee-double (bytes 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1)) ⇒ 4.0e-324 (bytes->ieee-double (list->bytes '(127 239 255 255 255 255 255 255))) 179.76931348623157e306 (bytes->ieee-double (bytes #xFF #xF0 0 0 0 0 0 0)) ⇒ -inf.0 (bytes->ieee-double (bytes #x7F #xF0 0 0 0 0 0 0)) ⇒ +inf.0 (bytes->ieee-double (bytes #x7F #xF8 0 0 0 0 0 0)) ⇒ 0/0

The string<?
ordering of big-endian byte-array
representations of fixed and IEEE floating-point numbers agrees with
the numerical ordering only when those numbers are non-negative.
Straighforward modification of these formats can extend the byte-collating order to work for their entire ranges. This agreement enables the full range of numbers as keys in indexed-sequential-access-method databases.
