Chapter 3, Problem 5RQ

Explanation of Solution

Overflow:

  • If the result of an operation generates a value that exceeds the format numeric range is known as overflow.
    • For example, the subtraction instruction of (2

Explanation of Solution

Underflow:

  • This is the representation of negative exponent of the number in decimal places which is too large to fit into the data format.
  • This is the condition which occurs when the output of the floating point overflows the exponent field...

Explanation of Solution

Ways to reduce the probability occurrence:

The following are the ways through which the probability of overflow and underflow error can be reduced,

  • Allocate the bit positions as per the scaling values in the storage...

Refer to page 80 for problems on white-box testing. Instructions: • Perform control flow testing for the given program, drawing the control flow graph (CFG). • Design test cases to achieve statement, branch, and path coverage. • Justify the adequacy of your test cases using the CFG.

Refer to page 10 for problems on parsing. Instructions: • Design a top-down parser for the given grammar (e.g., recursive descent or LL(1)). • Compute the FIRST and FOLLOW sets and construct the parsing table if applicable. • Parse a sample input string and explain the derivation step-by-step.

Refer to page 20 for problems related to finite automata. Instructions: • Design a deterministic finite automaton (DFA) or nondeterministic finite automaton (NFA) for the given language. • Minimize the DFA and show all steps, including state merging. • Verify that the automaton accepts the correct language by testing with sample strings.
