Greetings,

(I'm new to this newsgroup; please forgive me if the following has been
recently discussed).

Does ISO Standard 6093 Format F1 permit one to encode a floating-point
number as an integer?  For example:

	0.0	-> "0"
	1023.0	-> "1023"

Assume that the program which will read the encoded values knows that
they represent floating-point values.

Thanks in advance,
