Bases And Floating Points
1. Do the following by hand a) Convert to base 10 (11001.101)_2 b) Convert to base 2 (2005)_10 2. The floating point representation of a real number is x = ± (-.d_1d_2 . . . d_n)_B B^e where d_1 ≠0, -M ≤ e ≤ M. Suppose that B = 2, n = 7, M = 3. a) find the smallest (positive) and largest floating point numbers
