将二进制字符串转换为浮点数

我有一个正在存储位的对象。

class Bitset:
    def __init__(self, bitstring):
        self.bitlist = []
        for char in bitstring:
            self.bitlist.append(int(char))

    def flipBit(self, index):
        val = self.bitlist[index]
        val = (val + 1) % 2
        self.bitlist[index] = val
        self.newBitstring()

    def bitstring(self):
        newString = ''
        for val in self.bitlist:
            newString = newString + str(val)
        return newString

    def __len__(self):
        return len(self.bitlist)

    def __str__(self):
        return self.bitstring()

    def __repr__(self):
        return self.bitstring()

无论如何，我可以将这些位转换为浮点数吗？谢谢。

这是一个有效的解决方案。 as_float32 可以通过将“I”替换为“L”并将“f”替换为“d”来扩展为 as_float64。请参阅结构文档 http://docs.python.org/library/struct.html以获得解释。

def as_float32(self):
    """
    See: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IEEE_754-2008
    """
    from struct import pack,unpack
    s = self.bitlist
    return unpack("f",pack("I", bits2int(s)))

# Where the bits2int function converts bits to an integer.  
def bits2int(bits):
    # You may want to change ::-1 if depending on which bit is assumed
    # to be most significant. 
    bits = [int(x) for x in bits[::-1]]

    x = 0
    for i in range(len(bits)):
        x += bits[i]*2**i
    return x
