Is there any alternative means (besides those similar to the one depicted) to assign the binary/hexadecimal value of a float?

#include <stdio.h>

int main(void) {
    float pi;
    char *testPi;
    testPi = (char *)&pi;

    testPi[3] = 0x40;
    testPi[2] = 0x49;
    testPi[1] = 0x0F;
    testPi[0] = 0xDB;

    printf("%3.80f\n", pi);
   
    return 0;
}
