  2. Booth's multiplication algorithm - Wikipedia

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

    Booth's algorithm examines adjacent pairs of bits of the 'N'-bit multiplier Y in signed two's complement representation, including an implicit bit below the least significant bit, y −1 = 0. For each bit y i, for i running from 0 to N − 1, the bits y i and y i−1 are considered. Where these two bits are equal, the product accumulator P is

  3. Two's complement - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Two's_complement

    Two's complement is the most common method of representing signed (positive, negative, and zero) integers on computers, [1] and more generally, fixed point binary values. Two's complement uses the binary digit with the greatest value as the sign to indicate whether the binary number is positive or negative; when the most significant bit is 1 the number is signed as negative and when the most ...

  4. Signed number representations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Signed_number_representations

    Addition of a pair of two's-complement integers is the same as addition of a pair of unsigned numbers (except for detection of overflow, if that is done); the same is true for subtraction and even for N lowest significant bits of a product (value of multiplication). For instance, a two's-complement addition of 127 and −128 gives the same ...

  5. Fixed-point arithmetic - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fixed-point_arithmetic

    A fixed-point representation of a fractional number is essentially an integer that is to be implicitly multiplied by a fixed scaling factor. For example, the value 1.23 can be stored in a variable as the integer value 1230 with implicit scaling factor of 1/1000 (meaning that the last 3 decimal digits are implicitly assumed to be a decimal fraction), and the value 1 230 000 can be represented ...

  6. Overflow flag - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Overflow_flag

    An example, suppose we add 127 and 127 using 8-bit registers. 127+127 is 254, but using 8-bit arithmetic the result would be 1111 1110 binary, which is the two's complement encoding of −2, a negative number. A negative sum of positive operands (or vice versa) is an overflow.

  7. Method of complements - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Method_of_complements

    Indeed, two's complement is used in most modern computers to represent signed numbers. Complement the result if there is no carry out of the most significant digit (an indication that x was less than y). This is easier to implement with digital circuits than comparing and swapping the operands. But since taking the radix complement requires ...

    Universe set and complement notation The notation L ∁ = def X ∖ L . {\displaystyle L^{\complement }~{\stackrel {\scriptscriptstyle {\text{def}}}{=}}~X\setminus L.} may be used if L {\displaystyle L} is a subset of some set X {\displaystyle X} that is understood (say from context, or because it is clearly stated what the superset X ...

  9. Multiplicatively closed set - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiplicatively_closed_set

    An ideal P of a commutative ring R is prime if and only if its complement R \ P is multiplicatively closed. A subset S is both saturated and multiplicatively closed if and only if S is the complement of a union of prime ideals. [4] In particular, the complement of a prime ideal is both saturated and multiplicatively closed.
