converting single to an array of double

Question

Dear All I have created an application to transfer data on a UDP protocol as an asynchronous client socket. I am receiving 32 bytes of data on UDP in variable db.buffer. db is an instance of a class and buffer is byte array. I am executing the following statement: Dim value As Double = BitConverter.ToSingle(db.buffer 0) after executing the statement the length of the value is converted to only single instead I want it to store as an array so that I can read all the bytes respectively. Is there a way to overcome this situation? How can I split the bytes and store them in an array of double or integer?

Your question suggests that the 32 byte buffer consists of eight 4 byte single precision floating point numbers. If that's the case then you can isolate them and place them in a Double array as follows: Dim values(8) As Double For i As Integer = 0 To 7 values(i) = BitConverter.ToSingle(db.buffer 4 * i) Next
