Octet String Conversion

[miltizem]

Guys i'm using a software to monitor the signal over noise factor of a traffic ...
The result is given under two formats ..
First an octet string
Second a decibel number

my question how can i jumo from the first to the second .. what's the relation ? doesn anyone know ? without progrmming it ..

Exemple:
In octet string : 31 32 2E 32 30
In Decibel : 12.017 dB

What does the documentation for your software say?
A decibel is nothing more than just a ratio between two quantities while an octet string is just a string composed of eight-bit quanties.

If I interpret that octet string as ASCII (or UTF-8) it reads "12.20". Is that a coincidence? If not, one of the String constructors can do the job.

kind regards,
