Is there a way to parse a float from []u8 slice?

After looking around the web/docs, all I’ve come across is std.fmt.parseFloat, which appears to only be usable when the length is known at compile time.

This is a bit embarrassing. I posted this after stepping away from the code for a little bit, and went back and reviewed the errors I was getting from the compiler and I can't find where I was getting that impression from. There's no issue, I'm so sorry! 😓
