Program Plan Intro
IEEE binary32 format:
The diagrammatic representation for IEEE binary32 format is given below:
This format contains three fields such as sign bit, exponent and mantissa.
- Sign bit: This bit contains 1 bit. Here, “0” denotes positive number and “1” denotes negative number.
- Exponent:
- The exponent field contains “8” bits.
- This field required to denote both positive and negative exponents.
- The value of exponent is computed by adding a bias with actual exponent. That is, “value of exponent = actual exponent + bias”.
- Mantissa:
- This field contains “23” bits.
- It is a part of a value in scientific notation or a floating-point number, containing significant digits.
