How to see the binary value of float that's really stored in memory. Python

Question

Is there any way to access the actual bits that are stored in memory for the floating-point variables in Python?

I'm imagining something similar to bin() function (but with floats as inputs).

I came across various Python solutions to convert a floating-point number into its IEEE-754 representation (see below), but they all require several steps of computation, and I imagine one should have the ability to just read these values directly from memory - without the unnecessary manipulations. Or am I wrong? Then why is that impossible?

Here are the examples of what I've found:

• floating -> hex IEEE 754 (GeeksforGeeks)

• Python program to convert floating to binary (GeeksforGeeks):

Python doesn’t provide any inbuilt method to easily convert floating point decimal numbers to binary number.

• Binary representation of float in Python (bits not hex) (StackOverflow)

• Converting float.hex() value to binary in Python (StackOverflow). With this approach we should first convert a float into its hex representation with the float.hex() method.
