/* FixedToFloat
Converts an unsigned integer (considered as a fixed point binary
fraction 0.xxxxxxxxxxxxxx base 2) into a float in the range [0,1). 
It converts anything larger than the largest fixed point representation 
(with our constraint) to 1.0 and 0 to 0.0. MaxNum should be the largest
power of 2 representable in our unsigned integers.
