- In case of ordinary int variables A. leftmost bit is reserved for sign B. rightmost bit is reserved for sign C. no bit is reserved for sign D. none of thesearrow_forwardSuppose that we use the floating-point format with 12 decimal digits, SEEEMMMMMMMM, to rep- resent a real number, where S is the digit to represent the sign of the mantissa (use 0 for pos- itive and 5 for negative), EEE are the 3 digits to represent the exponent in excess-500 format, MMMMMMMM are the 8 digits to represent the magnitude of the mantissa, and the decimal point of the mantissa is right to the left of MMMMMMMM (i.e., SEEEMMMMMMMM representing the real number +0.MMMMMMMM × 10EEE-500.) When you use this format to represent a real number, in which scenario an overflow will occur and in which scenarios an underflow may occur?arrow_forwardSuppose that we use the floating-point format with 12 decimal digits, SEEEMMMMMMMM, to rep- resent a real number, where S is the digit to represent the sign of the mantissa (use 0 for pos- itive and 5 for negative), EEE are the 3 digits to represent the exponent in excess-500 format, MMMMMMMM are the 8 digits to represent the magnitude of the mantissa, and the decimal point of the mantissa is right to the left of MMMMMMMM (i.e., SEEEMMMMMMMM representing the real number +0.MMMMMMMM × 10EEE-500) What are the smallest positive number and the largest positive number that can be represented in this format? Write them in exponential notation.arrow_forward

(Each digit in your base-6 number must be different.) Convert your answer to decimal (base-10).arrow_forwardWhen a word is divided by a byte, after division, O a. AL will have quotient, and AH will have remainder O b. AH will have quotient, and AL will have remainder O c. DX and AX will have the quotient, and CX will have remainder O d. AX will have quotient, and DX will have remainderarrow_forwardExpress the binary floating-point value 1101.01101 as a sum of decimal fractions. The sum of decimal fractions is 13/1 + 1/2 + 1/8 + 1/32. а. The sum of decimal fractions is 13/1 + 1/2 + 1/4 + 1/32. b. The sum of decimal fractions is 13/1 + 1/4 + 1/16 + 1/32. The sum of decimal fractions is 13/1 + 1/4 + 1/8 + 1/32. O d.arrow_forward
- 7) Under computer integer arithmetic, the quotient J/K of two integers J and K is less than or equal to the usual quotient. True or false?arrow_forwardAssume you have a base 10 computer that stores floating-point numbers using a 5 digit normalized mantissa (x.xxxx), a 4 digit exponent, and a sign for each. (a) For this machine, what is machine epsilon? (b) What is the smallest positive normalized number that can be represented exactly in this machine?arrow_forward3.

- There are 2 numbers, X and Y in single-precision floating point representations. X=45B20000 and Y=B66C0000. Perform the multiplication operation on the two numbers using the floating-point number multiplication algorithm (the result is still in the floating-point format). Then convert each of them: X, Y and the results to a decimal number (fixed point).arrow_forwardThe ASCII code for the letter A is 1000001, and the ASCIIcode for the letter a is 1100001. Given that the ASCII codefor the letter Q is 1010001, without looking at Table 2.7,what is the ASCII code for the letter q?arrow_forwardA computer "nibble" consists of four "bits," each bit being either a 0 or a 1. If characters are represented using a code that uses a nibble for each character, how many different characters can be represented?arrow_forward
