Chapter 18, Problem 32E

a.

Program Plan Intro

Integer numbers:

  • The set of negative integers combined with positive integers including “0” produces the result as set of integers.
  • The mathematical symbol for integers can be represented as “Z”, the letter “Z” comes from German.
  • The range of integer can be varied for the word sizes,
    • For example, the word length is 16 bits long.
    • To represent only positive values, the largest value to store is 65,535.
    • To represent both positive and negative values, the largest value to store is 32,767.
  • The range of integer numbers can be represented with bits. But, some hardware systems support to store the long word arithmetic.
