Computer Architecture and Organization (ULC303) Number System and Code Conversion THAPAR INSTITUTE OF ENGINEERING & TECHNOLOGY Course Instructor Dr. Aditya Gupta Number Systems and Counting Computers and other digital systems process information as their primary function. Therefore, it is necessary to have methods and systems for representing information in different forms that can be easily manipulated and stored using electronic devices or other hardware. Number systems are mathematical systems for expressing quantities. Or “A system of counting” Or It is a mathematical notation for representing numbers of a given set consistently using digits or symbols. Understanding number systems is foundational for various fields like computer science, electrical engineering, and information technology. 8/3/2024 Thapar Institute of Engineering & Technology Types of Number Systems Roman number system: A numeral system that originated in ancient Rome and uses different Roman numerals such as I, II, III, IV, V, VI, VII, VIII, IX, and X to represent 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 and 10 respectively. 8/3/2024 Thapar Institute of Engineering & Technology Unary number system A numeral system that uses only a single digit to represent numbers. Numbers 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6,... are represented in unary as 1, 11, 111, 1111, 11111, 111111. 8/3/2024 Thapar Institute of Engineering & Technology Decimal number system The most commonly used number system in everyday life. It uses ten digits from 0 to 9. 8/3/2024 Thapar Institute of Engineering & Technology Binary number system The simplest and most fundamental number system used in digital electronics and computing. It uses only two symbols, 0 and 1. 8/3/2024 Thapar Institute of Engineering & Technology Octal number system A base-8 number system using digits 0 to 7. It’s often used as a shorthand notation for binary numbers because one octal digit represents three binary digits. Hexa Decimal number system A base-16 number system using digits 0 to 9 and letters A to F. It’s widely used in computing because one hexadecimal digit represents four binary digits, making it compact and easier to read. 8/3/2024 Thapar Institute of Engineering & Technology Radix/base of a number The radix or base of a number system is the number of unique digits, including zero, used to represent numbers in that system. It determines the positional value of each digit in a number. Positional Notation N = (an-1an-2... a1a0. a-1a-2... a-m)r where. = radix point r = radix or base n = number of integer digits to the left of the radix point m = number of fractional digits to the right of the radix point an-1 = most significant digit (MSD) a-m = least significant digit (LSD) 8/3/2024 Thapar Institute of Engineering & Technology Comparison of different number systems Decimal Binary Octal Hexadecimal 0 0 0 0 1 1 1 1 2 10 2 2 3 11 3 3 Radix of different numeral systems: 100 4 4 5 101 5 5 Decimal = 10 6 110 6 6 Binary= 2 7 111 7 7 Octal=8 8 1000 10 8 Hexa Decimal=16 9 1001 11 9 10 1010 12 A 11 1011 13 B 12 1100 14 C 13 1101 15 D 14 1110 16 E 15 1111 1 F 16 10000 20 10 8/3/2024 Thapar Institute of Engineering & Technology Conversion Among Bases The possibilities: Decimal Octal Binary Hexadecimal 8/3/2024 Thapar Institute of Engineering & Technology Example (25)10 = 110012 = 318 = 1916 Base 8/3/2024 Thapar Institute of Engineering & Technology Binary to decimal Technique – Multiply each bit by 2n, where n is the “weight” of the bit – The weight is the position of the bit, starting from 0 on the right – Add the results Decimal Octal Binary Hexadecimal 8/3/2024 Thapar Institute of Engineering & Technology Example Bit “0” (101011)2 => 1 x 20 = 1 1 x 21 = 2 0 x 22 = 0 1 x 23 = 8 0 x 24 = 0 1 x 25 = 32 (43)10 8/3/2024 Thapar Institute of Engineering & Technology Exercise Q1 (11100000)2 = (?)10 Q2 (11101001)2 = (?)10 8/3/2024 Thapar Institute of Engineering & Technology Solutions Q1 (11100000)2 = (224)10 Q2 (11101001)2 = (233)10 8/3/2024 Thapar Institute of Engineering & Technology Octal to Decimal Technique n – Multiply each bit by 8 , where n is the “weight” of the bit – The weight is the position of the bit, starting from 0 on the right – Add the results Decimal Octal Binary Hexadecimal 8/3/2024 Thapar Institute of Engineering & Technology Example (724)8 => 4 x 80 = 4 2 x 81 = 16 7 x 82 = 448 (468)10 8/3/2024 Thapar Institute of Engineering & Technology Exercise Q1 (77)8 = (?)10 Q2 (107)8 = (?)10 8/3/2024 Thapar Institute of Engineering & Technology Solutions Q1 (77)8 = (63)10 Q2 (107)8 = (71)10 8/3/2024 Thapar Institute of Engineering & Technology Hexadecimal to Decimal Technique n – Multiply each bit by 16 , where n is the “weight” of the bit – The weight is the position of the bit, starting from 0 on the right – Add the results Decimal Octal Binary Hexadecimal 8/3/2024 Thapar Institute of Engineering & Technology Example (ABC)16 => C x 160 = 12 x 1 = 12 B x 161 = 11 x 16 = 176 A x 162 = 10 x 256 = 2560 (2748)10 (A2F)16 => (2607)10 8/3/2024 Thapar Institute of Engineering & Technology Hexadecimal to Binary Technique – Convert each hexadecimal digit to a 4-bit equivalent binary representation Decimal Octal Binary Hexadecimal 8/3/2024 Thapar Institute of Engineering & Technology Example (10AF)16 = (?)2 1 0 A F 0001 0000 1010 1111 (10AF)16 = (0001000010101111)2 8/3/2024 Thapar Institute of Engineering & Technology Decimal to Binary Technique – Divide by two, keep track of the remainder – First remainder is bit 0 (LSB, least-significant bit) – Second remainder is bit 1 – Etc.
