[erlang-questions] undefined function erlang:binary_to_float/1

[Schneider]

yea, this should work. But It's looks like my Problem is a little bit 
more complicated:

I have a C client sending some Data via UDP. And I want to write a 
Erlang program receiving this data.

the Data is of the form {unsigned long, float} (both stored as 4Byte 
values) but the binary I receive is of the form {int, int}.
How can i convert the second one to an erlang float?

bg,
Johannes
