Question:
Signed binary fractions in 2's-complement representation are discussed at the beginning of Section 6.7.
(a) Express the decimal values 0.5,-0.123, -0.75, and -0.1 as signed 6-bit fractions. (See Appendix E for decimal-to-binary fraction conversion.)
(b) What is the maximum representation error,
e, involved in using only 5 significant bits after the binary point?
(c) Calculate the number of bits needed after the binary point so that
