ATOF: PARSE-FLOAT, a Common Lisp implementation of ATOF
lang/lisp/code/math/atof/
PARSE-FLOAT converts a string to a floating point number, if
possible. It is the Common Lisp equivalent of C's ATOF, with
several extensions. PARSE-FLOAT returns the floating point 
number, if any, and the index for the first character after the
number.
