Is this right?

2nd question about satellites

OpenStudy (quickstudent):

Sorry, I don't know anything about satellites.

OpenStudy (ksaimouli):

Is that an Endian problem?

NvidiaIntely (nvidiaintely):

What's an Endian problem?

NvidiaIntely (nvidiaintely):

Are you asking if the answer for the question on Tom'sHardware is correct?

OpenStudy (ksaimouli):

https://www.iar.com/globalassets/resources/articles/endianness_figure1.png Yes, also any explanantion about the answer would be helpful

NvidiaIntely (nvidiaintely):

Well, I don't really know about THIS kinda of stuff. but let me take a look into it :)

What's the problem with the answer on Tom'sHardware?

OpenStudy (ksaimouli):

OpenStudy (ksaimouli):

I don't understand how he got the values for the hex

NvidiaIntely (nvidiaintely):

Sorry, I am just starting to learn Hex codes :( @Vuriffy would be your best bet for this.

OpenStudy (mathmate):

That's what I thought too. Why don't you transcribe to the other endian and see what the value would be?

OpenStudy (ksaimouli):

right?

OpenStudy (ksaimouli):

Using this to translate the hex https://www.h-schmidt.net/FloatConverter/IEEE754.html

OpenStudy (mathmate):

It's double precision (8 bits). Try following instead: http://binaryconvert.com/result_double.html?hexadecimal=C085818BE3385433

OpenStudy (mathmate):

I think your strategy is to replicate the given decimal number from the given bytes, and then work on the endians, or other things.
