  2. 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 ...

  3. Method of complements - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Method_of_complements

    The nines' complement of a decimal digit is the number that must be added to it to produce 9; the nines' complement of 3 is 6, the nines' complement of 7 is 2, and so on, see table. To form the nines' complement of a larger number, each digit is replaced by its nines' complement. Consider the following subtraction problem:

  4. Integer overflow - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Integer_overflow

    An integer overflow can cause the value to wrap and become negative, which violates the program's assumption and may lead to unexpected behavior (for example, 8-bit integer addition of 127 + 1 results in −128, a two's complement of 128). (A solution for this particular problem is to use unsigned integer types for values that a program expects ...

  5. 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.

  6. Signed number representations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Signed_number_representations

    As an example, the ones' complement form of 00101011 (43 10) becomes 11010100 (−43 10). The range of signed numbers using ones' complement is represented by −(2 N−1 − 1) to (2 N−1 − 1) and ±0. A conventional eight-bit byte is −127 10 to +127 10 with zero being either 00000000 (+0) or 11111111 (−0).

  7. 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.

    Through the weekend, these fixed-rate accounts are paying APYs up to 4.52% and higher, giving you a reliable way to stay well ahead of inflation, which currently sets at 2.7%.

  9. Adder–subtractor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adder–subtractor

    A 4-bit ripple-carry adder–subtractor based on a 4-bit adder that performs two's complement on A when D = 1 to yield S = B − A. Having an n-bit adder for A and B, then S = A + B. Then, assume the numbers are in two's complement. Then to perform B − A, two's complement theory says to invert each bit of A with a NOT gate then add one.
