procedure
( write-float valsize[outbig-endian?])→void?
val:real?
size:(or/c 48)
out:output-port? =(current-output-port )
big-endian?:boolean? =#t

Equivalent to (write-bytes (real->floating-point-bytes valsizebig-endian?)out).

procedure
( read-float size[inbig-endian?])→real?
size:(or/c 48)
in:input-port? =(current-input-port )
big-endian?:boolean? =#t

Equivalent to (floating-point-bytes->real (read-bytes* sizein)big-endian?).
