Two friends are exchanging messages through regular post mail. They don’t want anyone to understand their messages in case anyone read them. The messages are in the form of an array of characters, where each character has a numeric value as illustrated in the below lookup table.
The binary string 11001111101001 is a floating-point number expressed using the 14-bit simple model given in your text. What
is its decimal equivalent?
Note: in the 14-bit simple model, the left-most bit is the sign, followed by 5 bits for the exponent, followed by 8 bits for the mantissa
(There are no implied bits). The exponent is in Excess 15 notation.
Our everyday number system in the UK and many other parts of the world is a base-10 system using Arabic numerals, namely the digits 0, 1, 9. Integers larger than
9 are represented by sequences of these elementary numerals. The numerical value encoded by such a sequence is determined by multiplying each numeral by 10k,
where k is the position of the numeral counted from the back and starting at zero, and then summing together the contributions from all numerals. For example,
5207 = 5 × 10³ +2×10² +0×10¹ + 7×10⁰
The built-in int function in Python can take a string (type str) representing such a number and convert it to a Python integer (type int). Write a similar function
base14_convert that takes a string and converts it to a Python integer according to the following number system:
• the base is 14, i.e., the individual digits have to be multiplied by powers of 14 to obtain the numerical value;
digits are represented by lower-case letters 'a', 'b', 'c', 'd', ..., i.e., 'a' is…

- Make a program to convert a number from decimal notation to a number expressed in a number system whose base (or radix) is a number between 2 and 9. The conversion is performed by repetitious division by the base to which a number is being converted and then taking the remainders of division in the reverse order. For example, in converting to binary, number 6 requires three such division: 6/2=3 remainder 0, 3/2 =1 remainder 1, and finally, 1/2=0 remainder 1. The remainders 0, 1 and 1 are put in the reverse order so that the binary equivalent of 6 is equal to 110. Modify your program so that it can perform a conversion in the case when the base is a number between 11 and 27. Number system with bases greater than 10 require to 1A in hexadecimal notation since 26/16=1 remainder 10 (that is, A) and 1/16=0 remainder 1.

Calculate the sum of the digits in the odd-numbered positions (the first, third,. eleventh digits) and multiply this sum by 3. 2. Calculate the sum of the digits in the even-numbered position (the second, fourth...tenth digits) and add this to the previous result. 3. If the last digit of the result from step 2 is 0, then 0 is the check digit. Otherwise, subtract the last digit from 10 to calculate the check digit. 4. If the check digit matches the final digit of the 12-digit UPC, the UPC is assumed correct By using C++ write a program that prompts the user to enter the 12 digits of a barcode separated by space. The program should store the digits in an integer array, calculate the check digit, and compare it to the final barcode digit.

That is, the statement is correct if we assume the numbers are expressed in a base other than 10. It is up to you to find out 2 Which number base makes each statement correct? You need to justify your answer by converting the numbers in each operation to base 10 and showing that the statement is correct. For example, 36/6 = 7 is clearly not correct in base 10 but it is correct in base 12 because 3612 =4210 and 4210/610 = 710. Thus, 3612/612 = 712 is true. 140 x 3 / 102 = 10arrow_forwardWrite a calculator conversion program in Python that converts: A binary number into a hexadecimal number.

You are asked to multiply two binary numbers using the sequential multiplier discussed in the class. These two binary numbers are 1101, and 10001. a. Show your work for multiplication, step by step. b. How many bits do you need to store the result?arrow_forwardIn HexWorld, instead of the decimal (base 10) number system we are used to, the hexadecimal numbersystem is used. The hexadecimal number system uses base 16 with digits 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, A, B, C, D, E,F, (where A is 10, B is 11, C is 12, D is 13, E is 14, F is 15). To communicate with HexWorld when numbers areinvolved, we are asking you to help us by coding a Python program, in a file called convert_hex.py, torepeatedly request a positive decimal number from the user and output the hexadecimal value until there areno more decimal values to be converted. We will assume there are no negative values to be converted.To compute the hexadecimal value we have to find the hexadecimal digits hn, hn-1, hn-2, ..., h2, h1, and h0, suchthatdec_value = hn x 16n + hn-1 x 16n-1 + hn-2 x 16n-2 + ... + h2 x 162 + h1 x 161 + h0 x 160These hexadecimal digits can be found by successively dividing dec_value by 16 until the quotient is 0; theremainders are h0, h1, ..., hn-1, hn.For example, if…arrow_forward
- Reversible operations with XOR:Often it is nice to be able to invert the bits in a value in a way that they are easily translated back to the original value.
