EXERCISE 2
-QUESTION 1: Differences between ASCII and Unicode character sets?
ASCII (American Standards Code for Information Interchange) and is a character encoding
standard that’s allows computers to represent text. ASCII assigns a unique numeric value to
each character, such as a letter, number, symbol, or control character. These values are then
stored in the computer using binary code, which is made up of 1s and 0s. It was developed in
1963 by the American National Standards Institute to allow different computers to
communicate with each other. Before ASCII, each computer company used its own binary
system, so the code for the same letters could differ between brands. While Unicode character
sets is a character encoding standard that assigns a unique numeric value to every character,
regardless of the language, program, or platform. This allows computers to represent and
manipulate text from different writing systems, including alphabets, ideographs, and symbols.
Unicode is a superset of all other character sets that have been encoded. It’s used by many
products and standards, including: XML, HTML, JScript, Java, Perl, Rust, and c#.
QUESTION 2: Converting decimal to binary number
- Converting (39.6875)10 to binary
- We need to separate both as a whole number and its fractional part
Step 1:
3910 to binary
2 39
2 19r
1
2 9r1
2 4r1
2 2r0
2 1r0
2 0r1
= 1001112
Step 2:
i. Multiply the fractions by 2.
ii. The integer part of the result is the next binary digit.
iii. Repeat with the new fractional part until it becomes 0
0.687510 to binary
- 0.6875 × 2 = 1.375 (integer part is 1)
- 0.375 × 2 = 0.75 (integer part is 0)
- 0.75 × 2 = 1.5 (integer part is 1)
- 0.5 × 2 = 1.0 (integer part is 1)
Now, combining the integer parts, we get: 1011.
Adding both the fractional s
1001112 110112 = 100111.1011
Therefore, the binary form of 39.687510 is 100111.10112
QUESTION 3: Converting binary to decimal number
- Converting (010101.101001)2 to decimal
- We need to separate both fractional’ s
Step1:
0101012 = (0 x 25) + (1 x 24) + (0 x 23) + (1 x 22) + (0 x 21) + (1 x 20)
= 16 + 4 + 1
= 2110
Step 2:
1010012 = (1 x 2-1) + (0 x 2-2) + (1 x 2-3) + (0 x 2-4) + (0 x 2-5) + (1 x 2-6)
= 0.5 + 0.125 + 0.015625
= 0.640625
Adding both the whole number and the fractional part
21(whole number) 0.640625(fraction part) = 21.640625
Therefore, the decimal number for 010101.1010012 is 21.640625
