We already know how to convert $-431_{10}$. To convert a non-integer number $N$ into binary, one can use an extension of the algorithm used in exercise (1a). \begin{enumerate} \item[1.] i=0. \item[2.] Take $\lfloor N \rfloor$ (i.e.~integer part of $N$) and convert it into a binary expression (call it $h_i$). \item[3.] Substitute $N \rightarrow 2(N - \lfloor N \rfloor)$. \item[4.] Set $i=i+1$ and go back to step 2 until $N=0$ or you have reached the desired precision. \item[5.] Your number is $h_0. h_1 h_2 \dots h_n$ \end{enumerate} % Let us convert $0.3125$ with the mentioned algorithm: % \begin{align*} & i=0 && i=1 && i=2 \\ & h_0 = \lfloor 0.3125 \rfloor = \boxed{0} && h_1 = \lfloor 0.625 \rfloor = \boxed{0} && h_2 = \lfloor 1.25 \rfloor = \boxed{1} \\ & N \rightarrow 2(N - \lfloor N \rfloor) = 0.625; && N \rightarrow 2(N - \lfloor N) \rfloor) = 1.25; && N \rightarrow 2(N - \lfloor N) \rfloor) = 0.5; \\ \\ & i=3 && i=4 \\ & h_3 = \lfloor 0.5 \rfloor = \boxed{0} && h_1 = \lfloor 1 \rfloor = \boxed{1}\\ & N \rightarrow 2(N - \lfloor N \rfloor) = 1; && N \rightarrow 2(N - \lfloor N) \rfloor = 0; \\ &&& {\rm end:~} 0.3125_{10} = \boxed{0.0101_{2}} \end{align*} % Thus $0.3125_{10} = 0.0101_{2} = (1.01 \cdot 2^{-2})_2$. Thus: % \begin{itemize} \item[-] The sign is $+ \rightarrow 0$ \item[-] The exponent is $-2$. Exponent+bias: $-2+15=13=01101_2$. \item[-] The mantissa is $1.010$. The first digit ($1.$) is not stored, and we store $0100000000$. \end{itemize} % Thus we have: % \begin{equation*} 0.3125_{10} \rightarrow \underbrace{0}_{\rm sign} \underbrace{01101}_{\rm exp+bias} \underbrace{0100000000}_{\rm mantissa} \rightarrow \underbrace{00110101}_{\rm byte~1} ~ \underbrace{00000000}_{\rm byte~2} \rightarrow \underbrace{35~~00}_{\rm hexadecimal} \end{equation*} % For $-431_{10}$ the exercise is similar. We have already computed $431_{10}=110101111 = 1.10101111 \cdot 2^{8}$. Thus: % \begin{itemize} \item[-] The sign is $- \rightarrow 1$ \item[-] The exponent is $8$. Exponent+bias: $8+15=23=10111_2$. \item[-] The mantissa is $1.10101111$. The first digit ($1.$) is not stored, and we store $1010111100$. \end{itemize} % Thus we have: % \begin{equation*} -431_{10} \rightarrow \underbrace{1}_{\rm sign} \underbrace{10111}_{\rm exp+bias} \underbrace{1010111100}_{\rm mantissa} \rightarrow \underbrace{11011110}_{\rm byte~1} ~ \underbrace{10111100}_{\rm byte~2} \rightarrow \underbrace{\rm DE~~BC}_{\rm hexadecimal} \end{equation*} % \task We have already found the hexadecimal bytes representation for our floating numbers: $0.3125_{10}=35~00$ and $-431_{10}={\rm DE~BC}$. In big endian, these bytes would be sequentially stored in the memory “from left to right", while in little endian the sequential storage would go in the other direction. Explicitly: % \begin{align*} 0.3125_{10} \rightarrow ~& {\rm big~endian:~} \underbrace{\boxed{35}}_{\rm slot~i}~\underbrace{\boxed{00}}_{\rm slot~i+1} & -431_{10} \rightarrow ~& {\rm big~endian:~} \underbrace{\boxed{\rm DE}}_{\rm slot~i}~\underbrace{\boxed{\rm BC}}_{\rm slot~i+1} \\ \rightarrow ~& {\rm little~endian:~} \underbrace{\boxed{00}}_{\rm slot~i}~\underbrace{\boxed{35}}_{\rm slot~i+1} & \rightarrow ~& {\rm little~endian:~} \underbrace{\boxed{\rm BC}}_{\rm slot~i}~\underbrace{\boxed{\rm DE}}_{\rm slot~i+1} \end{align*} % \task The number $2050$ expressed in binary is $100000000010$. In {\it binary16} its representation is: % \begin{equation} \underbrace{0}_{\rm sign} \underbrace{11010}_{\rm exp+bias} \underbrace{0000000001}_{\rm mantissa} ~~\Rightarrow~~ + \; 2^{26 - 15} \times 1.0000000001 = 1.0000000001 \times 2^{11} \end{equation} % From this representation is already clear that the {\it binary16} precision doesn't allow to store numbers like $2049$ or $2051$ at all, since this would require a 12 digit precision. Thus, both in INPUT A and in INPUT B, the code is requiring the machine a precision it cannot reach. As it should be clear from how the number $2050$ is stored, the machine has reached it maximal precision and it cannot store the number $2051$ whatsoever. This means that at each step in which the number $2051$ is met, the machine truncate it consistently with its maximum working precision, returning $2050$. INPUT C is well written and works fine. Differently from INPUT B, this time the machine works \emph{at first} with numbers of order 1, which are manipulated without difficulties. For example, the {\it binary16} representation of $5$ would be: % \begin{equation} \underbrace{0}_{\rm sign} \underbrace{10001}_{\rm exp+bias} \underbrace{0100000000}_{\rm mantissa -1} ~~\Rightarrow~~ + \; 2^{17 - 15} \times 1.0100000000 = 1.01 \times 2^2 = 101_2 \end{equation} % where indeed $101_2=5_{10}$. After having dealt with all order-1 numbers, it finally sums them to 2050, getting 2060 which is a perfectly storable number. In conclusion, one should be aware of the bad consequences of requiring the machine to work with more significant digits than its maximum. \end{subtasks} \end{solution} \fi \end{document}
