Assignment for Module 4

Assignment 1
Assignment is due in on Thursday 18th October 2001


Binary Arithmetic

1. Convert the following numbers to binary using twos complement representation

9 -6 -99

2. Assuming 10 bits represent a binary number, with the first being a sign bit (twos
complement). Convert the following binary digits to decimal

000011101
001001011
110001111

3. Normalise the following numbers, which are held with a 10-bit mantissa and
6-bit exponent

0 000000110 000111
0 000010111 000110
1 111110111 000000
1 111111010 000011

4. the binary number 1010 1011 0111 can be represented in a number of different
ways

a. State its hexadecimal form
b. State its value in denary if it represents

(i) an unsigned binary digit
(ii) a twos complement floating point number with an eight bit mantissa
followed by a 4-bit exponent

I too am thinking of going into the games industry, but i aiming for a games journalist.

I had too learn Pascal at college, biggest pile of basic crap i've ever seen. We had too do rubbish like, make a program to make your name flash on and off on the screen. Why the programs a pile of crap, how is that gonna help me in anyway.

sorry mate, i havnt got a clue. You'd be better off asking someone like ALiboy this sort of thing. Logan(sonicrav) also knows his stuff about computing.

Ive asked people this before but didnt get an answer...

You see, I wouldnt mind going into the gaming industry when im older, and wondered what program they use to make games?

Got any idea?

and YES......Pascal is a pile of.....erm......poo

yeah, we done that last year. biggest load of crap ever, but its somthin to get your started in programming...learning the basics. We are doing Visual Basic now, you'll probably do it next year an all.

Do you learn pascal for computing Ortega?

Thats what we use, but apparently its the most useless program in the world! *Wonders why he is learning it then*

safe safe, laterz aliboy!

SeeYa Ali!

Computer Science...... University...... No wonder you found our homework easy! :-D

Me thinks im going to be posting my homework on here more often! ;-)

Its alright, I was bored and didn't have much else to do. I am studying computer Science at uni so if anything else troubles you let me know (post it in here) and i'll try offer some help.
I'm off now guys, early start tomorrow.
see you later.

Thanks Ali!

My teacher's gonna be shocked!

Its the first homework I would have done! :-D
