Compute the C logical negation (!) of the following binary number: 0 1 0 1 1 0 0 ! 1 1

Use C++ and don't forrget the struct function

You are asked to design a 16-bit floating point number system to store the lengths of various man-made objects. This system should work in a similar way as the IEEE754 standard. Assume a value stored in the system denotes the length of an object in centimeters, assume also that the maximum length to be stored is 45845.0 centimeters (i.e. length of the biggest man-made oil-tanker, the “Seawise Giant”). Note: This representation has normalized, de-normalized and special cases as you have seen in IEEE754 standard. Answer the questions below: a) Is sign bit needed in this system? Why yes or why not. b) What is the minimum number of bits needed for the exponent? What is the value of the corresponding bias? Show your steps clearly. If you write the values directly without showing the steps, you will not get any point. c) What is the maximum length the system can represent? Please show your steps clearly, otherwise no point will be given.

The binary string 11001111101001 is a floating-point number expressed using the 14-bit simple model given in your text. What is its decimal equivalent? Note: in the 14-bit simple model, the left-most bit is the sign, followed by 5 bits for the exponent, followed by 8 bits for the mantissa (There are no implied bits). The exponent is in Excess 15 notation.
