Explanation of Solution

Function definition for “float_negate()” function:

The implementation for “float_negate()” function is given below:

//Header file

#include <stdio.h>

#include <assert.h>

//Declare the float_bits in unsigned data type

typedef unsigned float_bits;

//Function declaration for float_negate function

float_bits float_negate(float_bits f);

//Function definition for float_negate function

float_bits float_negate(float_bits f)

{

  //Compute the value of sign field

  unsigned signBit = f >> 31;

  //Compute the value of exponent filed

  unsigned exponentBit = f >> 23 & 0xFF;

  //Compute the value of fraction field

  unsigned fractionBit = f & 0x7FFFFF;

  //Check if the value of "f" is "NaN" or not

  if (exponentBit == 0xFF && fractionBit != 0)

  {

/* If "f" is "NaN", then return the given "f" value */

    return f;

 }

  //Otherwise compute the value of "-f"

return (~signBit << 31) | (exponentBit << 23) | fractionBit;

}

//Main function

int main(int argc, char **argv)

{

/* Call function "float_negate" with checking value using "assert" function */

/* For not a number that is "NaN" */

  assert(float_negate(0xFFFFFFF8) == 0xFFFFFFF8);

/* For a valid number" */

  assert(float_negate(0x10001234) == 0x90001234);

}

The given code is used to compute the value of “-f” that is for floating-point number...

Lab 07: Java Graphics (Bonus lab) In this lab, we'll be practicing what we learned about GUIs, and Mouse events. You will need to implement the following: ➤ A GUI with a drawing panel. We can click in this panel, and you will capture those clicks as a Point (see java.awt.Point) in a PointCollection class (you need to build this). о The points need to be represented by circles. Below the drawing panel, you will need 5 buttons: о An input button to register your mouse to the drawing panel. ○ о о A show button to paint the points in your collection on the drawing panel. A button to shift all the points to the left by 50 pixels. The x position of the points is not allowed to go below zero. Another button to shift all the points to the right 50 pixels. The x position of the points cannot go further than the You can implement this GUI in any way you choose. I suggest using the BorderLayout for a panel containing the buttons, and a GridLayout to hold the drawing panel and button panels.…
If a UDP datagram is sent from host A, port P to host B, port Q, but at host B there is no process listening to port Q, then B is to send back an ICMP Port Unreachable message to A. Like all ICMP messages, this is addressed to A as a whole, not to port P on A. (a)  Give an example of when an application might want to receive such ICMP messages. (b)  Find out what an application has to do, on the operating system of your choice, to receive such messages. (c)  Why might it not be a good idea to send such messages directly back to the originating port P on A?
