Object coordinates

Question

Hi
I want to know about indesign object coordinates.
In .indd file coordinates take 32 byte for any coordinate for top, left, bottom, right or (x, y, width, height).
How calculate x and y value from these 8-8 byte.It contain floting value but not follow IEEE standered.
What format use to store coordinate in indesign .indd file.
When I create a text frame in indesign on first page using Facing option whose value are
X=0, Y=0, Width=50,Height=50 and ruler is set on (0,0).I am not using any rotation.
Then I find the 32 byte for this in .indd file
00 00 00 00 00 00 22 C0
67 BD 78 7C 6C 91 7A C0
EE 76 BB DD 6E D7 62 40
F0 01 9B CD 66 63 71 C0
How calculate x , y width, height value from these hex byte.
What standered use by indesign to store coordinate.
Is there is any function in sdk that take these hex value and return coordinate.
Thanks

Hi  Jongware
Thanks for Reply
According you i try to convert these byte using double-precision binary floating point format but i am not getting my answer.
I am sending some screen shot of these byte. Plz help me  to get  x and y coordinate.
I am creating textframe in indesign using Facing with default setting and set x=0 mm , y=0 mm,w=50 mm, h=50 mm for textframe.
and get hex value
x = 00000000000022c0 // (after converting in double-precision binary floating point i get  -8)
y =67bd787c6c917ac0   //(after converting in double-precision binary floating point i get  -425.088985892906)
w =(EE76BBDD6ED76240 - 00000000000022C0) //(after converting EE76BBDD6ED76240  in double-precision binary floating point i get  150.732283464567)
H= (F0019BCD666371C0 - 67bd787c6c917ac0) //(after converting F0019BCD666371C0  in double-precision binary floating point i get  -278.212598424433)
According my information
InDesign  coordinates are measured relative to the current location of the ruler’s zero point; the vertical (Y-axis) coordinates below the zero point are positive numbers; coordinates above the zero point are negative numbers.
When you get or set  the location of a path point, the coordinates are passed and returned in the typical (x, y) order. InDesign returns some coordinates in a different order, however, and it expects you to supply them in that order. Geometric bounds and visible bounds are arrays containing four coordinates, which define (in order) the top, left, bottom, and right edges of the object’s bounding box,  (y1, x1, y2, x2).
I am not understand that i follow the right approch Plz help me  as soon as possible.
I am waiting for your reply.
Thanks
