Hi!

What is the way to get the binary representation of a IEEE 754 (like 0001110110001111010101100111001011100100101010111101) without using perl. Bash for example, would be fine.

I need to put that representation in a string for some operation and then to put that string back in a float.

I understand that for that last part I just need add zero to the string and it would become a float again.
