Converting Floating Point Numbers to Binary Using Python Hex

Printing floating point numbers in binary

I discovered that Python lacks a direct function to convert floating point numbers to binary, but the hex method offers a clever workaround. By leveraging the hex representation and its base-2 exponent, I can manually transform each hexadecimal digit into binary. This approach reveals the precise binary structure of numbers like pi and 1.03, bridging the gap between hexadecimal and binary formats for floating point values.
