[<Android.Runtime.Register("float16ToFloat", "(S)F", "", ApiSince=36)>]
static member Float16ToFloat : int16 -> single

Parameters

floatBinary16: Int16

the binary16 value to convert to float

Returns

Single

the float value closest to the numerical value of the argument, a floating-point binary16 value encoded in a short} The conversion is exact; all binary16 values can be exactly represented in float.

        Special cases:
        &lt;ul&gt;
        &lt;li&gt; If the argument is zero, the result is a zero with the
        same sign as the argument.
        &lt;li&gt; If the argument is infinite, the result is an infinity
        with the same sign as the argument.
        &lt;li&gt; If the argument is a NaN, the result is a NaN.
        &lt;/ul&gt;

        &lt;h4&gt;binary16Format&gt;IEEE 754 binary16 format&lt;/h4&gt;
        The IEEE 754 standard defines binary16 as a 16-bit format, along
        with the 32-bit binary32 format (corresponding to the <code data-dev-comment-type="c">float</code> type) and the 64-bit binary64 format (corresponding to
        the <code data-dev-comment-type="c">double</code> type). The binary16 format is similar to the
        other IEEE 754 formats, except smaller, having all the usual
        IEEE 754 values such as NaN, signed infinities, signed zeros,
        and subnormals. The parameters (JLS {
