integer to float? [message #12196]

Hi all you IDL'ers
Instead of scanning the manual, I'll present a question here...

I have an image file from our Siemens Magnetom scanner.
the format is stored as bigendian and is originally in 32-bit float format.
Since I'm new at this I would like some guidance in retrieving the pixel
information in a smooth way. I have written some code like this:
Read image information to vector as 32-bit integer
perform byte-swap
save in new file as byte
read new file as 32-bit float and sort the data to a complax array.

It works fine, but I would prefer to convert from integer to float without
having to save to a new file. How is that done?

sincerely
Jonas
