  2. Overflow flag - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Overflow_flag

    Overflow cannot occur when the sign of two addition operands are different (or the sign of two subtraction operands are the same). [1] When binary values are interpreted as unsigned numbers, the overflow flag is meaningless and normally ignored. One of the advantages of two's complement arithmetic is that the addition and subtraction operations ...

  3. McCabe–Thiele method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/McCabe–Thiele_method

    For the binary distillation depicted in Figure 1, the required number of theoretical plates is 6. Constructing a McCabe–Thiele diagram is not always straightforward. In continuous distillation with a varying reflux ratio, the mole fraction of the lighter component in the top part of the distillation column will decrease as the reflux ratio ...

  4. Binary option - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binary_option

    In the Black–Scholes model, the price of the option can be found by the formulas below. [27] In fact, the Black–Scholes formula for the price of a vanilla call option (or put option) can be interpreted by decomposing a call option into an asset-or-nothing call option minus a cash-or-nothing call option, and similarly for a put – the binary options are easier to analyze, and correspond to ...

  5. Arithmetic shift - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arithmetic_shift

    It is frequently stated that arithmetic right shifts are equivalent to division by a (positive, integral) power of the radix (e.g., a division by a power of 2 for binary numbers), and hence that division by a power of the radix can be optimized by implementing it as an arithmetic right shift. (A shifter is much simpler than a divider.

  6. Integer overflow - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Integer_overflow

    The register width of a processor determines the range of values that can be represented in its registers. Though the vast majority of computers can perform multiple-precision arithmetic on operands in memory, allowing numbers to be arbitrarily long and overflow to be avoided, the register width limits the sizes of numbers that can be operated on (e.g., added or subtracted) using a single ...

  7. Booth's multiplication algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Booth's_multiplication...

    Determine the values of A and S, and the initial value of P. All of these numbers should have a length equal to (x + y + 1). A: Fill the most significant (leftmost) bits with the value of m. Fill the remaining (y + 1) bits with zeros. S: Fill the most significant bits with the value of (−m) in two's complement notation.

  8. Saturation arithmetic - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saturation_arithmetic

    For example, adjusting the volume level of a sound signal can result in overflow, and saturation causes significantly less distortion to the sound than wrap-around. In the words of researchers G. A. Constantinides et al.: [1] When adding two numbers using two's complement representation, overflow results in a "wrap-around" phenomenon.

  9. Carry flag - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carry_flag

    The result should be 510 which is the 9-bit value 111111110 in binary. The 8 least significant bits always stored in the register would be 11111110 binary (254 decimal) but since there is carry out of bit 7 (the eight bit), the carry is set, indicating that the result needs 9 bits. The valid 9-bit result is the concatenation of the carry flag ...
