Explanation of Solution
- “LeD or incandescent bulb”, is the device that can have two states, ON and OFF.
- When the current flows through the circuit, the bulb is ON and it indicates a high state.
- When the switch is OFF, there is no current in the circuit and the device is OFF and it indicates a low state.

Give an expression for the number of frits to hold n octal bits.arrow_forwardWorking with cell addresses The address of a cell in Google sheets can be specified in two ways: either as a letter-number pair like C5, or as a pair of numbers like "row 5, column 3". Some formulas may be easier to specify on one way or the other, so it's useful to know how to convert from one form to the other and back. ROW() and COLUMN() take addresses in A1 format and return the number of the row and column respectively. ADDRESS() takes numeric row and column inputs and returns the address in A1 format. It also has an option argument to specify the relativity of the addresses: 1 (the default) returns absolute addresses; 2, 3, and 4 return row absolute, column absolute, and relative addresses respectively.

- A barcode scanner for Universal Product Codes (UPCs) verifies the 12-digit code scanned by comparing the code's largest digit (called a check digit) to its own computation of the check digit from the first 11 digits as follows: 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. If the digits…arrow_forwardConsider the decimal number (-48.325).

The exponent is in Excess 15 notation.arrow_forwardConsider a new floating point representation, which we will call here the CMPT215Float16 representation. The CMPT215Float16 representation follows the IEEE 754 binary floating point standard, but with smaller-sized fields for the exponent and fraction. In particular, CMPT215Float16 numbers have a 1-bit sign field, followed by a 7-bit exponent field (in biased notation, with a bias of only 63 because of the smaller size of this field), followed by an 8-bit fraction field.

- Please help me solve this problem with kind explanations :) We are running programs on a machine where values of type int have a 32-bit two's complement representation. Values of type float use the 32-bit IEEE format, and values of type double use the 64-bit IEEE format. We generate arbitrary integer values x, y, and z, and convert them to values of type double as follow: /* Create some arbitrary values */ int x = random(); int y = random(); int z = random(); /* Convert to double */ double dx = (double) x; double dy = (double) y; double dz = (double) z; For each of the following C expressions, you are to indicate whether or not the expression always yields 1. If it always yields 1, describe the underlying mathematical principles. Otherwise, give an example of arguments that make it yield 0.
