Write down the bit pattern in the fraction of value 1/3 assuming a floating point format that uses Binary Coded Decimal (base 10

) numbers in the fraction instead of base 2. Assume there are 24 bits, and you do not need to normalize. Is this representation exact?

Answer:

The resulting floating bit representation is:

0 00101010101010101 000001                 (24 bits)

Explanation:

Converting 1/3 in decimal: 0.3333...

For converting decimal number into binary we know that the digits on the left of decimal are multiplied with positive powers of 2 (starting from zero) while digit on right side are multiplied with negative powers of  2 (starting from -1).

For example: The number 123.45 (decimal) is equal to:  

=1 * 10^2 + 2 * 10^1 + 3 * 10^0 + 4 * 10^-1 + 5 * 10^-2

=1 * 100 + 2 * 10 + 3 * 1 + 4 * 0.1 + 5 * 0.01

Now for the decimal number 0.3333... the pattern becomes:

0*0 . 3*2^-1+3^-2+3^-3+3^-4.....

The first negative power (2^-1 = 0.5) is too large to fit. The next one is 2^-2 = 0.25 and it fits, so let's subtract that: 0.3333… - 0.25 = 0.08333… The next power that fits is 2^-4 = 0.0625. Subtracting that from the remaining result we get 0.08333…- 0.0625 = 0.0208333…

Continuing on this line we get:

0.3333333…. (decimal) = 0.0101010101010101….. (binary)

Now for creating a 24 bit floating point format that uses Binary Coded Decimal we have to assign bits as follows:

  • 6 bits for the exponent
  • 17 bits for the mantissa.
  • In this case the sign bit is 0 (1 bit) because the number is non-negative.

As we need not to normalize obtained number, then the exponent will be simply 1, and the mantissa remains: 00101010101010101...

Now

The mantissa is 0.0101010101010101 (17 bits)

The exponent is 000001 (6 bits).

The resulting floating bit representation is 0 00101010101010101 000001

Answer:

The program to this question as follows:

Program:

//header file iostream

#include<iostream> //including file for use basic function

//using name space

using namespace std;

//main method

int main() //defining main method

{

   int a[3][3]; //defining two dimension array

   int x,y,sum=0; //defining variables

   cout<<"Enter array elements: "<<endl; //message

   for(x=0;x<3;x++) // for row

   {

       for(y=0;y<3;y++) //for column

       {

          cin>>a[x][y]; //input values from user.

       }

       

   }

   //loop for calculting sum.

   for(x=0;x<3;x++)

   {

       for(y=0;y<3;y++)

       {

       sum=sum+a[x][y];//add all elements

       }

       

   }

   cout<<"Sum: "<<sum; //print sum.

   return 0;

}

Output:

Enter array elements:  

1

2

3

4

5

6

7

8

9

Sum: 45

Explanation:

In the above C++ programming language code first, a header file is included then the main method is declared, inside a main method 2D array that is "a[][]", and an integer variable is defined that are "i, j, and sum". In the next line for loop is used, this loop is used two times that can be described as follows:

  • The first time it is used for inserting elements from user ends.  
  • The second time, it uses the sum variable to add all array elements. and in the last print function that is "cout" is used for print sum variable value.

Kruka [31]

Answer:

The program code is in explaination

Explanation:

Program code below.

def judge(auction,price):

"""

Function: Returns Name who auctioned very near to give price

Input :

auction : list of tuples

price : auction price

output: returns name of best auction amount holder

"""

diff = [] #storing differences between auctionist amount and price

count = 0

for each_pair in auction:

if each_pair[1]<=price:

diff.append(price-each_pair[1])

else:

count+=1

diff.append(each_pair[1])

if count == len(auction): #check for if no one have auctioned good amount

return None

else:

more_possibility_index = diff.index(min(diff)) #finding index of best amount from diff list

return auction[more_possibility_index][0]

auction = [('Alice',430),('Bob',538),('Carol',487),('David',550)]

price = 520

print(judge(auction,price))

I kept the output at the attachment.
