Think about the examples we discussed in class - how numbers can be represented in 4 bits or 8 bits, etc. Expand this thinking to 16 bits.
Think about the examples we discussed in class - how numbers can be represented in 4 bits or 8 bits, etc. Expand this thinking to 16 bits. If you were given 16 bits to work with, as the basis for your representation scheme:
1. Assuming that all 16 bits are used only to represent digits (no excess bit), what would be the lowest integer you could represent? What would be the highest?
2. Assuming that the leftmost bit is reserved as an excess bit and the remaining 15 bits represent digits of the number, what would be the lowest integer you could represent? What would be the highest?
3. How many unique numbers can be represented?
