Bluetooth Packet Encoding

This is the c code used to construct the packets on the Arduino:

/** ================================== */
/** BLUETOOTH DATA PACKETING FUNCTIONS */
/** ================================== */
/** The two functions in this section handle packeting the data and sending it over USART to the bluetooth module. The two functions are
 *  identically named so are called the in the same way, however the first is run if the value passed to it is a float and the second is
 *  run if the value passed into it is an integer (an override function). For all intents and purposes you can ignore this and simply call
 *  'sendData(identifier, value);' using one of the defined identifiers and either a float or integer value to send informaion over BT.
 *
 * identifier:  see definitions at start of code
 * value:       the value to send (typically some caluclated value from a sensor)

If you adapt it to any other languages we would be keen to show the code here!
