Parameters

name
The name of the element.

Return Value

The element content as a single-precision floating-point number.

Remarks

This method reads the start tag, the content of the element, and moves the reader past the end element tag. It expands entities and ignores processing instructions and comments. The element can only contain simple content. That is, it cannot have child elements.

If the content is a binary encoded single-precision floating-point number, the reader returns the value read. If the content is of any other type, the reader attempts to convert it to a single-precision floating-point number.
