Python code to get hexadecimal value of given float number

# python code to demonstrate example
# of float.hex() function

num = 0.0
print("hex value of ", num, " is = ", float.hex(num))

num = 10.23
print("hex value of ", num, " is = ", float.hex(num))

num = -10.23
print("hex value of ", num, " is = ", float.hex(num))

Output

hex value of  10.23  is =  0x1.475c28f5c28f6p+3
hex value of  -10.23  is =  -0x1.475c28f5c28f6p+3
