Program Plan Intro
Tiny switch that can be set either “on” or “off”:
- The tiny switch that can be set to be either “on” or “off” is called as bit.
- A bit can be limitedly used to represent the numbers.
- The bit can be represented using two different values or numbers that indicates whether the bit is turned on or off.

It includes sign bit, exponent, and mantissa bits. Based on precision it has 2 types. 1. For IEEE 754 single-precision floating-point numbers, what is the exponent of a denormalized floating-point number in decimal? Solution: In IEEE 754 single-precision, exponent bits are 8. Therefore exponent = 2 ^(n-1) -1 = 2^(8-1) -1 = 127 OPTION D 2. For IEEE 754 single-precision floating-point numbers, how many bits for mantissa?
