Number Systems Data Types and Storage Data representation and storage Engineering Problem Solving with C++ second edition, J. ingber
Data Representation and Storage • Digital computers store information as a sequence of bits (binary digits). • The value or state of a bit at any given time can be 0 or 1 (off or on). • Data is stored as a sequence of bytes. • A byte is a sequence of 8 bits. Engineering Problem Solving with C++ second edition, J. ingber
Data Representation and Storage:Memory Diagram Address Space = 8 Word Size = 16 Engineering Problem Solving with C++ second edition, J. ingber
Data Representation and Storage • Right most bit is referred to as the least significant bit. • Left most bit is referred to as the most significant bit. • Value stored at address 000 is 00001010110111012 = 278110 But what does it represent? Engineering Problem Solving with C++ second edition, J. ingber
Number Systems • Base ten number system • Ten decimal digits (0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9) • Each digit multiplies a power of ten • Example: 24510 = 2*102 + 4*101 + 5*100 Engineering Problem Solving with C++ second edition, J. ingber
Number Systems • Base two (binary) number system • Two binary digits (0,1) • Each digit multiplies a power of two • Example: 101102 = 1*24 + 0*23 + 1*22 + 1*21 + 0*20 = 1*16 + 0*8 + 1*4 + 1*2 + 0*1 = 16 + 0 + 4 + 2 + 0 = 2210 Engineering Problem Solving with C++ second edition, J. ingber
Number Systems • Base eight number system • Eight octal digits (0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7) • Each digit multiplies a power of eight • Example: 2458 = 2*82 + 4*81 + 5*80 = 2*64 + 4*8 + 5*1 = 128 + 32 + 5 = 1658 Engineering Problem Solving with C++ second edition, J. ingber
Number Systems • Base sixteen number system • Sixteen hex digits (0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,A,B,C,D,E,F) • Each digit multiplies a power of sixteen • Example: 2FB16 = 2*162 + F*161 + B*160 = 2*256 + F*16 + B*1 = 512 + 240 + 11 = 76310 Engineering Problem Solving with C++ second edition, J. ingber
Number Systems: Practice! • 1002 = ?8 • 37168 = ?2 • 1101001112 = ?10 • 3A1B16 = ?2 Engineering Problem Solving with C++ second edition, J. ingber
Data Types • Integer Data Type: • Often represented in 4 bytes (System Dependent) • Left most bit is reserved for the sign of the number • Remaining 31 bits represent the magnitude of the number. Engineering Problem Solving with C++ second edition, J. ingber
Data Types • Representation of data affects the efficiency of arithmetic and logic operations. • For efficiency, negative integers are often represented in their 2’s complement form. • The 2’s complement of an integer is formed by negating all of the bits and adding one. Engineering Problem Solving with C++ second edition, J. ingber
Example: 2’s Complement • Form the 2’s complement representation for the value -12710 assuming a word size of 8 for simplicity. 12710 = 011111112 Negate bits: 10000000 Add 1: 10000001 • 2’s complement is 10000001 Engineering Problem Solving with C++ second edition, J. ingber
Example: 2’s Complement • Add 127 to -127 01111111 + 10000001 = _______ 00000000 Engineering Problem Solving with C++ second edition, J. ingber
Data Types • Floating Point Data • Floating point types represent real numbers, such as 1.25, that include a decimal point. • Digits to the right of the decimal point form the fractional part of the number. • Digits to the left of the decimal point form the integral part of the number.
