Document Summary
Cse 278 - lecture - architecture and number systems. Information in computers represented by electronic devices in two states: Data and different types of numbers are represented in this way, and their interpretation depends on the latter. Can convert a number to binary using successive division: divide by 2. Then the remainder of each step will give the first digit of binary, the second, etc . Divide that quotient by two to get next digit of binary and remainder. Range- the contingus bits to represent the number is often called a word, which often defaults to 4 bytes or 32 bits. If word has k-bits we can represent 2^k number with values x where 0 <=x.
