\alias{.double2singlePrecision}
\title{Converts double to single precision.}
\usage{
.double2singlePrecision(x)
}
\arguments{
\item{x}{\code{double}, numeric value which should reduce from double
precision to single precision.}
}
\value{
\code{double} (in single precision).
}
\description{
This function simulates the conversion of floating point numbers from double
precision (64bit, R: \code{double()}, C: \code{double}) to single precision
(32bit, R: \code{none}, C: \code{float}). It follows IEEE 754 standard.
}
\details{
The same could be done in C by using casts:
\preformatted{
double precision32(double value) {
float x=value;
return (double)x;
}}
}
\examples{
## load library
library("readBrukerFlexData")
## show more details
oldDigits <- options()$digits
options(digits=22)
## a test number
num <- 1/3
num
readBrukerFlexData:::.double2singlePrecision(num)
## reset digits option
options(digits=oldDigits)
}
