Binary Numbers

 Bi means two


Made up of
Base 2 values
0 1
s and s

 Ex = 101 (one-oh-one/one-zero-one)
 How to show - 1012

Reference
Binary Numbers (Mixed Numbers)

Example: 10.1

The "10" means 2 in decimal,

The ".1" means half,

So "10.1" in binary is 2.5 in decimal


Bit

 bit = “Binary Digit”


 Single Binary Digit -> bit
 Ex, 10010 is 5 bits long
Bytes

· 1 Bit = Binary Digit

· 8 Bits = 1 Byte

· 1024 Bytes = 1 Kilobyte

· 1024 Kilobytes = 1 Megabyte

· 1024 Megabytes = 1 Gigabyte

· 1024 Gigabytes = 1 Terabyte

· 1024 Terabytes = 1 Petabyte

· 1024 Petabytes = 1 Exabyte

· 1024 Exabytes = 1 Zettabyte


Binary to Decimal (Whole Numbers)
Exercise D1E1

Convert binary to decimal values

Example (10011)2 = (19)10

1. 1001011
2. 110101
3. 10001011
4. 01000000
5. 00111111
Decimal to Binary (Whole Numbers)
Exercise D2E2

Convert decimal to binary values

Example (19)10 = (10011)2

1. 63
2. 33
3. 100
4. 120
5. 168
Decimal to Binary (Fraction Numbers)
Exercise D2E3

Convert decimal to binary values

Example (0.435)10 = (0.01101)2

1. 0.63
2. 0.435
3. 4.1
4. 8.64
5. 2.531
Binary to Decimal (Fraction Numbers)
Exercise D2E4

Convert binary to decimal values

Example (0.10010)2 = (0.5625)10

1. 0.1
2. 0.1001
3. 0.111
4. 1.001
5. 11.11
Two's Complement

 The way computers represent integers


 Common math problems are very simple to implement
 Ex. (nibble or ½ byte)
 0000 - Zero
 0001 - one
 1111 - minus one
 To get the two's complement negative notation of an integer
 write out the number in binary
 Then invert the digits
 Add one to the result
 Ex. find how -28 would be expressed in two's complement notation > write out 28 in
binary form -> 00011100 > Then invert the digits. 0 becomes 1, 1 becomes 0. ->
11100011 >Then we add 1 -> 11100100 Reference
Two’s Complement
