Chapter 4, Problem 18RQ
Explanation of Solution
Definition of Left factoring:
Left factoring is used when the parser has to choose between the RHSs of a non-terminal while expanding a non-terminal, where there are multiple RHS for the same non terminal starting with the same terminal symbol.
Example:
A aB / a
This production cannot pass the pairwise disjoint test as

It includes sign bit, exponent, and mantissa bits. Based on precision it has 2 types. 1. For IEEE 754 single-precision floating-point numbers, what is the exponent of a denormalized floating-point number in decimal? Solution: In IEEE 754 single-precision, exponent bits are 8. Therefore exponent = 2 ^(n-1) -1 = 2^(8-1) -1 = 127 OPTION D 2. For IEEE 754 single-precision floating-point numbers, how many bits for mantissa? Solution: In IEEE 754 single-precision, there are 23 bits for mantissa. sign = 1 bit exponent = 8 bits mantissa = 23 bits 3. For IEEE 754 single-precision floating-point numbers, which of the following is an example of NAN? Solution: In IEEE 754 single-precision, NAN is a special value where all exponents bits are 1's and the mantissa is non zero. a. 1 111 1 111 0000 0000 1101 0000 0000 0000 Exponent is not all 1's.
