Thanks Ben.

So I added

	long  byteOrder = NSHostByteOrder();

and in my case that returns "1".  How do I use that value for my results array?  What type should this array be?

For now I have been using

	float *results

But I guess that needs to be changed based on the value of byteOrder ?


Basically what I am trying to do is to convert and NSData object which I know contains an array of pairs of values to a Cocoa usable object, eg an NSArray of NSDictionaries.
