Command: float64_to_atom
  
Syntax: 
  a1 = float64_to_atom(s)
  
Description: 
  Convert a sequence of 8 bytes to an atom. These 8 bytes must 
  contain an IEEE floating-point number in 64-bit format.
  
Comments: 
  Any 64-bit IEEE floating-point number can be converted to an 
  atom.
  
Example: 
     f = repeat(0, 8) 
              fn = open("numbers.dat", "rb")  -- read binary
              for i = 1 to 8 do
                  f[i] = getc(fn)
      end for
              a = float64_to_atom(f)
