Convert A Binary Float To FLOAT Datatype
Apr 9, 2007I can't take full credit for this. I want to share this with Jeff Moden who did the important research for this calculation here.
All I did was just adapting some old code according to the mantissa finding Jeff made and optimized it a little
Some test codeDECLARE@SomeNumber FLOAT,
@BinFloat BINARY(8)
SELECT@SomeNumber = -185.6125,
@BinFloat = CAST(@SomeNumber AS BINARY(8))
SELECT@SomeNumber AS [Original],
CAST(@SomeNumber AS BINARY(8)) AS [Binary],
dbo.fnBinaryFloat2Float(CAST(@SomeNumber AS BINARY(8))) AS [Converted],
@SomeNumber - dbo.fnBinaryFloat2Float(CAST(@SomeNumber AS BINARY(8))) AS [Error]
And here is the code for the function.CREATE FUNCTION dbo.fnBinaryFloat2Float
(
@BinaryFloat BINARY(8)
)
RETURNS FLOAT
AS
BEGIN
DECLARE@Part TINYINT,
@PartValue TINYINT,
@Mask TINYINT,
@Mantissa FLOAT,
@Exponent SMALLINT,
@Bit TINYINT,
@Ln2 FLOAT,
@BigValue BIGINT
SELECT@Part = 1,
@Mantissa = 1,
@Bit = 1,
@Ln2 = LOG(2),
@BigValue = CAST(@BinaryFloat AS BIGINT),
@Exponent = (@BigValue & 0x7ff0000000000000) / EXP(52 * @Ln2)
WHILE @Part <= 8
BEGIN
SELECT@Part = @Part + 1,
@PartValue = CAST(SUBSTRING(@BinaryFloat, @Part, 1) AS TINYINT),
@Mask =CASE WHEN @Part = 2 THEN 8 ELSE 128 END
WHILE @Mask > 0
BEGIN
IF @PartValue & @Mask > 0
SET @Mantissa = @Mantissa + EXP(-@Bit * @Ln2)
SELECT@Bit = @Bit + 1,
@Mask = @Mask / 2
END
END
RETURNSIGN(@BigValue) * @Mantissa * POWER(CAST(2 AS FLOAT), @Exponent - 1023)
END
Thanks again Jeff!

SQL Server 2012 :: Convert Integer To Date
Oct 16, 2014In VBA, CLng(Now) will return the integer portion of a date CLng(Now) returns 41928, CDate(41928) then returns 10/16/2014. Is there something equivalent in SQL Server that will allow me to convert an integer value to a date?
In short, how can I convert a 100 year date to Gregorian (any format)?
SQL 2012 :: Convert Datetime Into Date In SSIS
Dec 7, 2014I have define two variable of Datetime type @Sdate and @Edate.
1. @Sdate = DATEADD ("DD", -5, GETDATE())
2. @Edate = GETDATE()
3. Using Forloopcontainer for pulling the data into batches
( @sdate = dateadd ( "HH" , 1, @sdate))
Now since i am using getdate() to define @Sdate. my variable gets data as ( 2014/12/08 11:43:00AM)
Converting GETDATE( 2014/12/08 11:43:00AM) to only date 2014/12/08 00:00:00AM.
I tired using DT_WSTR which works fine (converting datetime int String).
Problem occurs when i am going through For Loop container . Since i have used assignment of @Sdate is says its not allowed.
Convert Int To Float
Jun 21, 2007Hi,
why does converting integer to float take so long? Its a column with about 5 Million rows.
I want to avoid cast(inumber1 as float) / cast(inmuber2 as float), thats why converting them. Queries should be a bit faster after that.. hope so :)
Thanks a lot

Function Required To Convert Packed Decimal In Binary(6) To Int (or Float)
Mar 8, 2007I have been given some data from a Mainframe (AS400?) which has some fields coded in Packed Decimal. I have been able to load the data into a SQL2005 database table, but I now need to convert the Packed Decimal data in the binary(6) field to the appropriate integer (or float) value.
The field contains values such as the following:-
0x20202020200C
0x202020022025
0x20202020DFFA
I don't know how to interpret these. Has anyone got a function that can do this for me?
I've read several articles online that explain how packed decimal works, but none tell me how to interpret the last of my three examples. Can you help?
Thanks!
