The format is a binary formatconsisting of a sign bit (negative = 1), a base 2, 8-bit,excess-128 exponent, and 23 bits of mantissa, withthe implied binary point to the right of the first bit ofthe mantissa.
I need a pseudo code and explanation step by step of how the pseudo code made.
Given the code C = {000 000, 111 000, 000 111 } Consider the following statements: (1) The code C can correct up to 1 bit error. (2) The minimum distance of code C is 3. Which of the following is correct? O Both statements are TRUE. O Only statement (1) is TRUE. O Both statements are FALSE. O Only statement (2) is TRUE.
Assume you now have 1kB of memory, i.e. the memory address space runs from 0 to 1023. The starting address of the first word is 0, the second word is 4, the third word is 8, and so on. The last word comprising 4 bytes resides in addresses 1020, 1021, 1022, 1023. Thus, the last word starts at 1020, which is a multiple of 4. Now assume the same 1kB of memory but now, word size is 64 bits. The starting address of the first word is 0, the second, third, and last word starts at? my answer: (correct) the second is equal to = 8 the third is equal to = 16 help me find the last word

A processor uses a serial link to communicate with a keyboard for word processing. A typist using this keyboard can type at rates peaking at 120 words per minute, where a word is 6 characters (including spaces and punctuation). The characters will be transmitted from the keyboard in 8-bit ASCII with one stop bit and no parity. Only consider these and no special characters. The programmer writes setup and polling service routines based on a minimum baud rate, but then finds that the keyboard will only interface at 19.2 Kbaud. Will the polling service routine have to change? Why or why not? Baud Rates 300 600 1200 2400 4800 9600 19200
The binary number 1001 converts to the decimal number 9, with the 0th (zeroth) bit on the right representing 1 and the 3rd bit representing 8. If you're converting the decimal number 33 to binary, what is the highest numbered bit (counting from the 0th bit on the right) that will be set? a. 0th b. 1st c. 2nd d. 5th e. 6th
In the MIPS Assembly language I need a program that Read two integers and outputs one of the following messages based on the values of the two numbers a user enters: Message 1: The two numbers are Not Equal The 1st number is smaller than 2nd number or The 1st number is greater than 2nd number (message depends on the numbers the user enters) Message 2: The two numbers are Equal Using one of these branching methods atleast. branch blez branch beqz branch bnez
