Program Plan Intro

Programmable Logic Controller (PLC):

  • PLC is a specialized computer used in industrial segments to control machines and process.
  • PLC is program that consists of a set of instructions which resembles the controlling functions needed to perform specific tasks.
  • The function of PLC is similar to that of a relay and hence, in an industrial segment a relay is greatly replaced by a suitable PLC.
  • When compared to general Personal Computer (PC), a PLC is available in small and tiny sizes.
  • The basic architecture of a PLC consists of an input-output interface module and a small Central Processing Unit (CPU) that runs by controlling programming language.

Hexadecimal number system:

  • In hexadecimal number system, the numbers from “0” to “9” and letters from “A” to “F” are used.
  • It means, in total, hexadecimal system has 10 numbers and 6 alphabets.
  • Therefore, the base used for hexadecimal numbering system is 16.

Binary number system:

  • In binary system, the numbers “0” and “1” are only used.
  • It means, in total, binary system has only 2 numbers.
  • Therefore, the base used for binary numbering system is 2.

Explanation of Solution

b.

Conversion of binary number to its equivalent hexadecimal code:

  • Given, binary number is “00100101”.
  • First, the given binary number is partitioned into two groups, such that each group contains only four bits.
  • Now, each group is converted to its corresponding hexadecimal code.
  • Here, “0010” is one such group and “0101” is the other group.
  • The following diagram describes the hexadecimal notation of the binary number “0010”.

  • The hexadecimal equivalent of decimal number “2” is “2”...

Explanation of Solution

c.

Conversion of binary number to its equivalent hexadecimal code:

  • Given, binary number is “01001110”.
  • First, the given binary number is partitioned into two groups, such that each group contains only four bits.
  • Now, each group is converted to its corresponding hexadecimal code.
  • Here, “0100” is one such group and “1110” is the other group.
  • The following diagram describes the hexadecimal notation of the binary number “0100”.

  • The hexadecimal equivalent of decimal number “4” is “4”...

Explanation of Solution

d.

Conversion of binary number to its equivalent hexadecimal code:

  • Given, binary number is “00111001”.
  • First, the given binary number is partitioned into two groups, such that each group contains only four bits.
  • Now, each group is converted to its corresponding hexadecimal code.
  • Here, “0011” is one such group and “1001” is the other group.
  • The following diagram describes the hexadecimal notation of the binary number “0011”.

Modular Program Structure. Analysis of Structured Programming Examples. Ways to Reduce Coupling. Based on the given problem, create an algorithm and a block diagram, and write the program code: Function: y=xsin⁡x Interval: [0,π] Requirements: Create a graph of the function. Show the coordinates (x and y). Choose your own scale and show it in the block diagram. Create a block diagram based on the algorithm. Write the program code in Python. Requirements: Each step in the block diagram must be clearly shown. The graph of the function must be drawn and saved (in PNG format). Write the code in a modular way (functions and the main part should be separate). Please explain and describe the results in detail.
