What are the maximum/largest numbers that can be stored in the system by these
three forms defined above? (express your answer in decimal values)
What are the non-negative minimum/smallest numbers that can be stored in the
system by the denormalized form? (express your answer in decimal values)
How many numbers (both non-negative and negative) can be represented in the
above mentioned system using the general form? Explain your answer.

Assume that Oscar can observe all messages sent between Rina and Naseem. Oscar has no knowledge of any keys but the public one, in the case of DS. State whether DS and MAC protect against each attack and, if they do, how. The value auth(x) is computed with a DS or a MAC algorithm. In each scenario, assume the message M = x#####auth(x). (Message integrity) Rina has the textual data x = “Transfer $1000 to Mark” to send to Naseem. To ensure the integrity of the data, Rina generates auth(x), forms a message M, and then sends M in cleartext to Naseem. Oscar intercepts the message and replaces “Mark” with “Oscar.” Will Naseem detect this in the case of either DS or MAC? If yes, how will Naseem detect it? If not, why?
