  • Hence the maximum unsigned decimal value is...

b.

Explanation of Solution

Maximum unsigned decimal value with n quad digits

  • The quad number is represented with n digits and hence the maximum unsigned decimal value is calculated by 4n – 1...

c.

Explanation of Solution

Adding two unsigned quad numbers

  • The quad numbers are unsigned base-4 numbers that contains four symbols 0,1,2 or 3.

e.

Explanation of Solution

Converting quad to binary

  • For converting a number into binary then first it must be converted to decimal and then converted to binary.
  • As an example, when the quad number 123.3 is converted to decimal, it provides the result as 27...

f.

Explanation of Solution

Floating point representation of quad number

  • The floating point number is a 32-bit number.
  • It allocates the bits as 1 bit for sign, 8 bits for exponent and 23 bits for mantissa.
  • As an example, for converting a quad number 123.3 into floating point format, first the given quad number is converted into binary format.
  • Hence the binary format of 123.3 is 11011.11...

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?
