Hello,

I am using strconv.FormatFloat[1] and strconv.ParseFloat[2]to convert 
float32s back-and-forth in a library I am working on. In my tests I decided 
to test all formats for FormatFloat ('b', 'e', 'E', 'f', 'g', 'G', 'x', 
'X'). However, it seems like the 'b' format is not supported by ParseFloat 
(see [3]).

Is this correct? Is my code showing this correct?[3]
If Yes, is there some reason why the one format ('b') is not supported by 
ParseFloat?

My question is more one driven by curiosity rather than a need for this 
format. It was a surprise to me that one of the formats generated by the 
complement function in the same module was not supported.

Thanks,
Glen
