Answer:

Using 32bits.

a:0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0011 0100 1101

b:0000 0000 0000 0000 0011 1010 1001 1000

c:0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0110 0100

d:1111 1111 1111 1111 1111 1100 0110 0101

Explanation:

Conversion to Two's Complement

The 2's complement system is commonly used for signed integer representation on computers. The 2's complement operation is done by inverting the binary digits of an integer and then adding one.

For the purpose of explanation lets make use of a negative number for clarity. In this case lets use -923.

Note that the use of 32bits for this question is objective, you can use a range of bits for this operation. this question can go as low as 16bits and as high as 64bits depending on application and specification.

For Example:

we have -923, and want to represent it in 2's complement, you take the binary representation of positive 923:

0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0011 1001 1011

Invert the digits.

1111 1111 1111 1111 1111 1100 0110 0100

And add one.

1111 1111 1111 1111 1111 1100 0110 0100 + 1

1111 1111 1111 1111 1111 1100 0110 0101

Answer:

(a) 845 = 0000 0011 0100 1101

(b) 1500 = 0011 1010 1001 1000

(d) -923 = 1111 1100 0110 0101

Explanation:

NOTES:

First Note: The question requests that the numbers be represented in word-length. That means they should be represented in 16bits (a word is 2 bytes).

Second Note: To convert a number to its 2's complement representation,

(i) if the number is positive, the usual conversion to binary will suffice. You might just need to add zero at the beginning of the sequence of bits to ensure that the leftmost bit is a zero(0).

(ii) if the number is negative, then;

=> convert the magnitude of the number to its binary

=> add zeros to the beginning of the sequence of binary until the sequence has the specified length

=> flip each bit in the sequence and add 1 to the result.

SOLUTION:

Applying the rules in the notes above, lets convert the numbers.

(a) 845 => The number is positive, conversion to its binary will suffice

2 | 845

2 | 422 R 1

2 | 211 R 0

2 | 105 R 1

2 | 52 R 1

2 | 26 R 0

2 | 13 R 0

2 | 6 R 1

2 | 3 R 0

2 | 1 R 1

2 | 0 R 1

Writing the remainders upwards, we have

845 = 1101001101

Pad with zeros to convert it to its word-length representation.

845 = 0000 0011 0100 1101

(b) 15000 => The number is also positive, so following the same step as above,

15000 = 11101010011000

Pad with zeros to convert it to its word-length representation.

15000 = 0011 1010 1001 1000

(c) 100 => The number is also positive, so following the same step as above,

100 = 1100100

Pad with zeros to convert it to its word-length representation.

100 = 0000 0000 0110 0100

(d) -923 => The number is negative;

--> first convert its magnitude (923) to binary

923 = 1110011011

--> Pad with zeros to convert it to its word-length representation.

923 = 0000 0011 1001 1011

--> Flip the bits

0000 0011 1001 1011 = 1111 1100 0110 0100

--> Add 1 to the result above

1111 1100 0110 0100 + 1 = 1111 1100 0110 0101

Therefore;

-923 = 1111 1100 0110 0101

g Write a program that prompts the user for an integer n between 1 and 100. If the number is outside the range, it prints an err

grin007 [14]

Answer:

The cpp program is given below.

#include<iostream>

#include<iomanip>

using namespace std;

int main() {

// variables declared

int n;

int sum=0;

float avg;

{

// user input taken for number

cout<< "Enter a number between 1 and 100 (inclusive): ";

cin>>n;

if(n<1 || n>100)

cout<<" Number is out of range. Enter valid number."<<endl;

}while(n<1 || n>100);

cout<<" "<<endl;

// printing even numbers between num and 50

for(int num=1; num<=n; num++)

{

sum = sum + num;

}

avg = sum/n;

// displaying sum and average

cout<<"Sum of numbers between 1 and "<<n<<" is "<<sum<<endl;

cout<<"Average of numbers between 1 and "<<n<<" is ";

printf("%.2f", avg);

return 0;

}

OUTPUT

Enter a number between 1 and 100 (inclusive): 123

Number is out of range. Enter valid number.

Enter a number between 1 and 100 (inclusive): 56

Sum of numbers between 1 and 56 is 1596

Average of numbers between 1 and 56 is 28.00

Explanation:

The program is explained below.

1. Two integer variables are declared to hold the number, n, and to hold the sum of numbers from 1 to n, sum. The variable sum is initialized to 0.

2. One float variable, avg, is declared to hold average of numbers from 1 to n.

3. User input is taken for n inside do-while loop. The loop executes till user enters value between 1 and 100. Otherwise, error message is printed.

4. The for loop executes over variable num, which runs from 1 to user-entered value of n.

5. Inside for loop, all the values of num are added to sum.

sum = sum + num;

6. Outside for loop, average is computed and stored in avg.

avg = sum/n;

7. The average is printed with two numbers after decimal using the following code.

printf("%.2f", avg);

8. The program ends with return statement.

9. All the code is written inside main() and no classes are involved.
