    Binary to text converter

    I have difficulty in reading the contents of the binary file. When I tried to open the .bin file, all I could see were the weird letters as below:



    Code:

    Can anyone help me with some codes to convert them to human readable text? I suppose the file contains floating point numbers.
    Please help.

    Thank you.

    It's pretty close to impossible to convert the binary to exactly the same text unless you know the structure that was used to create the binary file. In that case just use fread() to obtain data and then write it to another file that uses text.

    Didn't you just ask this same thing? And didn't they already answer you there?

    Hope is the first step on the road to disappointment.
