Transmit Float as Byte Stream Using Union

Code

#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdint.h>

typedef union {
    float f;
    uint8_t bytes[4];
} FloatPacket;

void fillpacket(float input){
    FloatPacket fp;
    fp.f = input;

    for(int i=0;i<4;i++){
        printf("Byte %d: %u", i, fp.bytes[i]);
        if(i<3){
            printf("\n");
        }
    }
}

int main() {
    float input;
    scanf("%f", &input);

    fillpacket(input);

    // Fill union and print 4 bytes
    return 0;
}
