My questions ... 1) Does anyone recognize this numeric format ?
Seem to be some decimal coded binary, where you only use hexa from 0 to 9, coding corresponding decimal digits.
The trailing hexa F may be used to indicate the end of the number (if number can have variable length) as it is normally not used as a digit in this coding.
3) I think that the trailing "f" is sometimes used to indicate the sign of the number and perhaps even the number of decimal places ... but am not sure.
Maybe... but have you an example of a negative number ?
