// <synopsis>
// This class contains static toLocal functions to convert data from IBM-360
// format to local format and vice-versa. It also handles the conversion
// of the IBM EBCDIC characters to ASCII characters (for data type char).
// <p>
// The functions work well on big-endian as well as little-endian machines.
// </synopsis>

// <motivation>
// Archived WSRT data can be stored in the old IBM format
// (EBCDIC characters and floats with base 16).
// Conversion functions are needed to read these data.
// </motivation>

// <todo asof="$DATE$">
//  <li> Support data type long double.
// </todo>
