Binary Representation
Which bit is flipped when finding two's complement of a binary number?
Sign Bit
What is the advantage of sign and magnitude representation?
How is the sign of a number determined in two's complement?
In sign and magnitude binary, there are
representations for zero.
Ones Complement
In sign and magnitude representation, the
bit indicates whether the number is positive or negative.
What is the disadvantage of sign and magnitude representation?
Two's complement
Why is two's complement used instead of sign-magnitude representation?
To obtain the two's complement of a positive binary number, we first invert all of the
