Unless the number is a subnormal form (special case explained in a later video of this series), it is assumed that every number is 1.??? * 2^??? so if that 1 is always going to be at the front anyway, then there is no need to store it in the representation. It just gets added later when decoding the number.
you use the repeating group for repeating. In the case of 0.1 = 0.00011 the repeating group is 0011(0.0) so you repeat this until you have your 23bits filled.
Could you actually create a video for subtraction, because somewhy, i dont get results that i need to get using this same formula, and the rounding up bit doesnt really do much when the problem is in the first 8 bits of binary numbers.
I'm busy focusing on videos for other classes now, so I probably won't get around to doing a subtraction video. However, it really should be identical to addition ... all you do is change the sign bit and then add the numbers. If you are getting an incorrect result, then you must not be carrying out the addition correctly.
The actual default IEEE standard is to round to whichever of the two nearest options has a 0 in the least-significant bit, but the option to round ties away from 0 (as is done here) is also defined as an option.
Ok thanks, I just found this, now my questions are answeared. Thanks en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IEEE_floating_point#Rounding_rules Actually this is pretty important and I never really knew about it...lol
How do you know that the sign is still positive, if i have something like 0, 0000 1 01 0 1... * 2^6 in the end of the process, do i have to normalize it to somtheing like 1, 01 0 1 .... * 2^1 then get the exponent = 1+127 in binary, the mantissa is the part behind the floating point and HOW can i safely interpret the sign bit? In my excersice I had to subtract two IEEE 754 single prec. numbers, A - B. B is a negative number so it ends up as an addition. Under the line i have the numbers i wrote in the firt paragraph of this comment
+Vic Arz Subtraction is pretty much the same as addition, though the two numbers you are using both have infinite repeating fractional components, so you need to watch out for rounding errors.
While shifting the decimal point to the right in 0.1001 u gave Ye as -1. Then after multiplying 2^-3 , why did u go towards left ? Aren't u supposed to move towards right ??? Coz that's what u did first.
Because the larger number is given priority. If you gave priority of e.g. 0.000000001 over 12765406544654.1 that would lead to even more unexpected results than the other way around. You would have to round off the larger number, leading to a much larger error than if you had to round off the smaller number.

Normalized means that the first digit of the significand has to be 1, because the 1 is always implied. So, if your significand is 0.00101110...., then you have to shift the number twice to the left to normalize it, which is equivalent to multiplying it with 2^3 = 8. This shift has to be taken account of in the exponent, of course. If you multiply the significant by 8, you have to subtract 3 from the exponent (8 = 2^3) 0.00101110... becomes 2^(-3) * 1.01110.... The significand in binary storage becomes 01110... (the first 1 is implied). If the exponent part of an IEEE 754 number is 00000..., then we call that number *denormalized*, which means that the number has a lower precision than normalized numbers, as denormalized numbers have a lower bit budget. Denormalized numbers fill the gap between +/-0 and the lowest normalized number to enable gradual underflow to zero.
The formula you gave saved my life. My teacher did not show us that. Thank you so much
Please why are we adding one in front of Xs and Ys?

@@JacobSchrum thank you sir.
Is there any formula for subtraction?
You just subtract Ys instead of adding it
To compose the significand for Y we use 1001 repeating. For X we use 0011. I expected to use 00011. Why is the incorrect?
you use the repeating group for repeating. In the case of 0.1 = 0.00011 the repeating group is 0011(0.0) so you repeat this until you have your 23bits filled.
oh yeah. thanks.

THe thing with the roundig up in the end of the mantissa, not everybody does this, why?

But i am not sure about the sign bit
Fraction 3/4 --> 0.11
What will be the repetitve pattern for such a case?
It's just 0.11000000000000000000...
All fractions of powers of 2 have no repeating patterns.
Could you explain the substraction please? I have a problem when I try to do this 0.2 - 0.8.

How I wish you taught the whole course. do you?

Aren't u supposed to move towards right ???
Coz that's what u did first.
i think he made a mistake , it should be 2^3 and the formula should say , (Xs * 2^Ye - Xe + Ys) * 2^Ye
Why must Xe
Because the larger number is given priority.

@@albedoshader Ah ok, gotcha
what do u actually mean that it is normalized
if it is not normalized how will we know that
and how to normalize it
can you plz reply me fast
thanks!
Normalized means that the first digit of the significand has to be 1, because the 1 is always implied.
So, if your significand is 0.00101110...., then you have to shift the number twice to the left to normalize it, which is equivalent to multiplying it with 2^3 = 8. This shift has to be taken account of in the exponent, of course. If you multiply the significant by 8, you have to subtract 3 from the exponent (8 = 2^3)
0.00101110... becomes
2^(-3) * 1.01110....
The significand in binary storage becomes 01110... (the first 1 is implied).
If the exponent part of an IEEE 754 number is 00000..., then we call that number *denormalized*, which means that the number has a lower precision than normalized numbers, as denormalized numbers have a lower bit budget. Denormalized numbers fill the gap between +/-0 and the lowest normalized number to enable gradual underflow to zero.
Great explanation! Thank you
