### Read/write IEEE754 floating point numbers from/to a Buffer or array-like object.
## install
``` npm install ieee754 ```
## methods
`var ieee754 = require('ieee754')`
The `ieee754` object has the following functions:
``` ieee754.read = function (buffer, offset, isLE, mLen, nBytes) ieee754.write = function (buffer, value, offset, isLE, mLen, nBytes) ```
The arguments mean the following:
- buffer = the buffer - offset = offset into the buffer - value = value to set (only for `write`) - isLe = is little endian? - mLen = mantissa length - nBytes = number of bytes
## what is ieee754?
The IEEE Standard for Floating-Point Arithmetic (IEEE 754) is a technical standard for floating-point computation. [Read more](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IEEE_floating_point).
