Thanks. I'll look into that tomorrow. In the meantime, I have it working with decimal well enough.
Thanks everybody for the help!

Hi David
I'm sure it's easier than I'm making it.
Really, I just need to turn the data from the arduino into usable floats. Right now it's coming in as ascii characters and I'm building lists between carriage returns. Hopefully I can now turn those lists into numbers without too much trouble. Should I maybe be doing this with binary numbers? Would that be easier?
i'd guess so. you could use [mapping/debytemask] in order to convert the byte into its single bits. then parsing of the data you want should be really easy.
