DataView.prototype.getFloat32()

The getFloat32() method gets a signed 32-bit float (float) at the specified byte offset from the start of the DataView.

Syntax

getFloat32(byteOffset)
getFloat32(byteOffset, littleEndian)

Parameters

• byteOffset
  • : The offset, in byte, from the start of the view where to read the data.
• littleEndian
  • : optional Indicates whether the 32-bit float is stored in little- or big-endian format. If false or undefined, a big-endian value is read.

Return value

A signed 32-bit float number.

Errors thrown

• RangeError
  • : Thrown if the byteOffset is set such as it would read beyond the end of the view.

Description

There is no alignment constraint; multi-byte values may be fetched from any offset.
