| Question 10 |
Consider the following floating point number representation
The exponent is in 2’s complement representation and mantissa is in the sign magnitude representation. The range of the magnitude of the normalized numbers in this representation is
| 0 to 1 | |
| 0.5 to 1 | |
| 2-23 to 0.5 | |
| 0.5 to (1-2-23) |
Question 10 Explanation:
Maximum value of mantissa will be 23, is where a decimal point is assumed before first 1. So the value is 1 – 2-23.
Correct Answer: D
Question 10 Explanation:
Maximum value of mantissa will be 23, is where a decimal point is assumed before first 1. So the value is 1 – 2-23.
