Assembling a float from an array of bytes I would like to convert an array of bytes, received from serial, to a float.

Let's consider this exemple. I'm sending 0.12 byte-wise from an Android application. The conversion from float to array of bytes in the Android side is handled by this function

public static byte [] float2Bytes(float value)
    {
        return ByteBuffer.allocate(4)./*order(ByteOrder.LITTLE_ENDIAN).*/putFloat(value).array();
    }


When bytes arrive, they are stored in an array and the assembled.

hiBytew1 = bufferBytes[9];
//Serial.println(hiBytew1);
loBytew1 = bufferBytes[10];
//Serial.println(loBytew1);
hiBytew2 = bufferBytes[11];
//Serial.println(hiBytew2);
loBytew2 = bufferBytes[12];
//Serial.println(loBytew2);
float conAck = assemble(hiBytew1, loBytew1, hiBytew2,loBytew2);


How can I achieve this kind of conversion assuming that bytes are received in the correct order?
Just cast the pointer.

float conAck = *((float*)(bufferBytes + 9));
