Given a 10-bit floating-point number with a 4-bit exponent field which follows IEEE floating point rules except for the above sizes:
-
What is the hexadecimal representation of the bit-pattern representing minus infinity?
-
Give the hexadecimal representation of the bit-pattern and the decimal value of the smallest positive number.
-
Give the hexadecimal representation of the bit-pattern and the decimal value of the smallest positive normalized number.
-
Give the hexadecimal representation of the bit-pattern and the decimal value for the most negative number which is not minus infinity.
-
Give the smallest and largest ULP values possible in this representation.
You should use a calculator to solve this problem.
