If the floating-point number representation on a certain system has a sign bit, a 3-bit exponent, and a 4-bit significand. What

is the smallest positive decimal number that can be stored on this system if the storage is normalized? (Assume no bits are implied, there is no biasing, exponents use two's complement notation, and exponents of all zeros and all ones are allowed.) Note: no leading/trailing zero's.

Answer:

Normalization of storage is a typical method of storing the floating point number by shifting the decimal after the first figure of the number such as 1101.101 is normalized to 1.101101x23.

If the number that is in hovering point representation has 1 sign bit, 3-bit exponent with a 4-bit significant:

whenever the storage is normalized, then the biggest positive floating spot number in 2`s and the complement notation is 0.11112 x 23 = 111.12 =7.5

If the storage is returned to normal, then the minimum positive floating point number is 0.12 x 2-4 =0.000012 =1/32 = 0.03125.

Explanation:

Whenever the floating figure is keyed into the computer memory, then the first bit will be the sign bit, the next 8 bits are for exponent and 23 bits are used for storing significand. The array of exponents is from -127 to 128. While Exponent 127 stands for 0 and positive figures can be represented by values bigger than 127. The biggest floating point number will be represented as 0.111111.... 1111x 211111111

What would happen if your computer was infected with the virus or if your network went down?
tatuchka [14]

Your computer will programs more slowly, when you go to an anti-virus software, for some, it will block you from allowing you to access the application. Your information may be stripped from your computer, allowing the infection to take your personal identity and money.

Write a function called countstuff () that takes as a parameter a character array, and returns an int. The prototype must be:
PSYCHO15rus [73]

Answer:

Please kindly go to the explanation part.

Explanation:

The required function is written in Raw code below.

Function:

#include<stdio.h>

#include<ctype.h> //including required libraries

int countstuff(char s[]){ //Function countstuff

int cntUp=0,cntLow =0,cntDigits = 0,i=0,value; //declaring required variables

for(i=0;s[i]!='\0';i++){ //loop to iterate over the characters of string

if(isupper(s[i])){

cntUp++; //incrementing count of uppercase if it is uppercase character

}

else if(islower(s[i])){

cntLow++; //incrementing count of lowercase if it is lowercase character

}

else if(isdigit(s[i])){

cntDigits++; //incrementing count of digits if it is digit

}

}

value = cntUp*1000000 + cntLow*1000 + cntDigits; //counting value using formula given in question

return value; //returning the value

}

void main(){

char string[1000]; //declaring required variables

int value;

printf("Enter a String:");

scanf("%[^\n]s",string); //taking string as input

value = countstuff(string); //calling function

printf("The Value is : %d\n",value); //printing result

}

Eq-20 why is the height of a vhf radio antenna important
masya89 [10]
Reasons why the height of a VHF radio antenna is important is because VHF radios work by the line of sight principle.
Line of sight
its a line from observers eye to a distant point.its a line between two points specifically the straight path between a transmitting antenna (as for radio or television signals) and receiving antenna when unobstructed by the horizon.
