PEEK\_F is a function which reads six bytes from any position in
memory, which it assumes is the internal representation of a SuperBASIC
floating point number, and returns its value.

**WARNING**

PEEK\_F will lead to a crash if the six bytes at address did not
represent a valid floating point, compare this with CVF.
