Study Notes

Binary Arithmetic

  • Binary Number System: A base-2 number system that uses only two digits: 0 and 1
  • Binary Arithmetic Operations:
    • Addition: similar to decimal addition, but with carry bits (1s) and no borrow bits
    • Subtraction: similar to decimal subtraction, but with borrow bits (1s) and no carry bits
    • Multiplication: similar to decimal multiplication, but with binary digits
    • Division: similar to decimal division, but with binary digits

Number Base Conversion

  • Number Base Systems:
    • Binary (base 2): uses 0 and 1
    • Octal (base 8): uses 0-7
    • Decimal (base 10): uses 0-9
    • Hexadecimal (base 16): uses 0-9, A-F (A=10, B=11, ..., F=15)
  • Conversion Methods:
    • Binary to Decimal: sum of place values (2^0, 2^1, 2^2, ...)
    • Decimal to Binary: repeated division by 2 and remainder
    • Hexadecimal to Decimal: sum of place values (16^0, 16^1, 16^2, ...)
    • Decimal to Hexadecimal: repeated division by 16 and remainder

Hexadecimal Applications

  • Use Cases:
    • Color representation (RGB): #RRGGBB, where RR, GG, BB are hexadecimal values
    • Memory addresses: often represented in hexadecimal format
    • Data compression: hexadecimal representation can be more compact than binary
    • Programming languages: hexadecimal literals are used in some languages

Twos Complement Representation

  • Signed Integer Representation:
    • Most significant bit (MSB) indicates sign (0 for positive, 1 for negative)
    • Remaining bits represent the magnitude
  • Twos Complement:
    • Invert all bits (1's complement)
    • Add 1 to the result
    • Example: decimal -5 in 8-bit twos complement: 11111011

Bitwise Operations

  • Bitwise AND (&):
    • Bit-by-bit AND operation
    • Result has 1 only if both operands have 1 in that position
  • Bitwise OR (|):
    • Bit-by-bit OR operation
    • Result has 1 if either operand has 1 in that position
  • Bitwise XOR (^):
    • Bit-by-bit XOR operation
    • Result has 1 if operands have different values in that position
  • Bitwise NOT (~):
    • Inverts all bits (1 becomes 0, 0 becomes 1)

Binary Arithmetic

  • Binary number system uses only two digits: 0 and 1
  • Binary arithmetic operations have some differences compared to decimal operations:
    • Addition: uses carry bits (1s) and no borrow bits
    • Subtraction: uses borrow bits (1s) and no carry bits
    • Multiplication: uses binary digits
    • Division: uses binary digits

Number Base Conversion

  • Number base systems include:
    • Binary (base 2): uses 0 and 1
    • Octal (base 8): uses 0-7
    • Decimal (base 10): uses 0-9
    • Hexadecimal (base 16): uses 0-9, A-F (A=10, B=11,..., F=15)

    • Binary to Decimal: sum of place values (2^0, 2^1, 2^2,...)
    • Decimal to Binary: repeated division by 2 and remainder
    • Hexadecimal to Decimal: sum of place values (16^0, 16^1, 16^2,...)
    • Decimal to Hexadecimal: repeated division by 16 and remainder

  • Hexadecimal is used in various applications:
    • Color representation (RGB): #RRGGBB, where RR, GG, BB are hexadecimal values
    • Memory addresses: often represented in hexadecimal format
    • Data compression: hexadecimal representation can be more compact than binary
    • Programming languages: hexadecimal literals are used in some languages

Twos Complement Representation

  • Signed integer representation uses:
    • Most significant bit (MSB) to indicate sign (0 for positive, 1 for negative)
    • Remaining bits to represent the magnitude
  • Twos complement representation:
    • Inverts all bits (1's complement)
    • Adds 1 to the result
    • Example: decimal -5 in 8-bit twos complement: 11111011

Bitwise Operations

  • Bitwise AND (&) operation:
    • Bit-by-bit AND operation
    • Result has 1 only if both operands have 1 in that position
  • Bitwise OR (|) operation:
    • Bit-by-bit OR operation
    • Result has 1 if either operand has 1 in that position
  • Bitwise XOR (^) operation:
    • Bit-by-bit XOR operation
    • Result has 1 if operands have different values in that position
  • Bitwise NOT (~) operation:
    • Inverts all bits (1 becomes 0, 0 becomes 1)
