  2. Bitwise operations in C - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bitwise_operations_in_C

    For example, when shifting a 32 bit unsigned integer, a shift amount of 32 or higher would be undefined. Example: If the variable ch contains the bit pattern 11100101, then ch >> 1 will produce the result 01110010, and ch >> 2 will produce 00111001. Here blank spaces are generated simultaneously on the left when the bits are shifted to the right.

  3. Computer number format - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computer_number_format

    While a single bit, on its own, is able to represent only two values, a string of bits may be used to represent larger values. For example, a string of three bits can represent up to eight distinct values as illustrated in Table 1. As the number of bits composing a string increases, the number of possible 0 and 1 combinations increases ...

    For example: 0101 (decimal 5) AND 0011 (decimal 3) = 0001 (decimal 1) The operation may be used to determine whether a particular bit is set (1) or cleared (0). For example, given a bit pattern 0011 (decimal 3), to determine whether the second bit is set we use a bitwise AND with a bit pattern containing 1 only in the second bit:

  6. Binary integer decimal - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binary_Integer_Decimal

    In both formats the range of possible values is identical, but they differ in how the significand c is represented. In the decimal encoding, it is encoded as a series of p decimal digits (using the densely packed decimal (DPD) encoding). This makes conversion to decimal form efficient, but requires a specialized decimal ALU to process.

  7. Bit numbering - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bit_numbering

    This table illustrates an example of an 8 bit signed decimal value using the two's complement method. The MSb most significant bit has a negative weight in signed integers, in this case -2 7 = -128. The other bits have positive weights. The lsb (least significant bit) has weight 2 0 =1. The signed value is in this case -128+2 = -126.

  8. Single-precision floating-point format - Wikipedia

    Thus only 23 fraction bits of the significand appear in the memory format, but the total precision is 24 bits (equivalent to log 10 (2 24) ≈ 7.225 decimal digits). The bits are laid out as follows: The real value assumed by a given 32-bit binary32 data with a given sign, biased exponent e (the 8-bit unsigned integer), and a 23-bit fraction is

  9. Binary number - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binary_number

    In the binary system, each bit represents an increasing power of 2, with the rightmost bit representing 2 0, the next representing 2 1, then 2 2, and so on. The value of a binary number is the sum of the powers of 2 represented by each "1" bit. For example, the binary number 100101 is converted to decimal form as follows:
