Syntax

public final float readFloat() throws IOException

Returns

the next four bytes of this input stream, interpreted as a float.

Description

Reads a float from this data input stream. This method reads an int value as if by the readInt method and then converts that int to a float using the intBitsToFloat method in class Float. This method blocks until the four bytes are read, the end of the stream is detected, or an exception is thrown.

Exceptions

EOFException if this input stream reaches the end before reading four bytes.

Exceptions

IOException if an I/O error occurs.
