SYNOPSIS

float to_float( int)
float to_float( string)
float to_float( float)
(float)<value>

DESCRIPTION

Ints are expanded to floats; strings are converted up to the first character that doesnt belong into a float.

Floats are just returned.

Limit

The cast notation only works if the precise type of <value> is known at compile-time. This will not be fixed–use the function form instead.
