UGC NET Computer Science Data Representation - Number System PYQ


UGC NET Computer Science PYQ
The least values of a signed and unsigned data type variables requiring 8 bits, would be:





Go to Discussion

UGC NET Computer Science UGC NET PYQ UGC NET Computer Science UGC NET Computer Science June 2024 (Paper II) PYQ

Solution

For 8-bit signed integer (two’s complement):


Range = $-2^{7}$ to $2^{7}-1$


Least value = $-128$


For 8-bit unsigned integer:


Range = $0$ to $2^{8}-1$


Least value = $0$


UGC NET Computer Science PYQ
What is the $(4+4)$ bit binary fixed point equivalent of $-(3.72)_{10}$?





Go to Discussion

UGC NET Computer Science UGC NET PYQ UGC NET Computer Science UGC NET Computer Science June 2023 (Paper II) PYQ

Solution

First convert positive $3.72$ approximately in $(4+4)$ fixed point form.

$3.72 \approx 3.75$

$3 = 0011$

$0.75 = .1100$

So,

$3.75 = 0011.1100$

For negative number, take 2’s complement:

$0011.1100 \to 1100.0100$

UGC NET Computer Science PYQ
Suppose you have eight black and white images taken with a $1$-megapixel camera and one $8$-color image taken by an $8$-megapixel camera. How much hard disk space in total do you need to store these images on your computer?





Go to Discussion

UGC NET Computer Science UGC NET PYQ UGC NET Computer Science UGC NET Computer Science Nov 2021 (Paper II) PYQ

Solution

A black and white image needs $1$ bit per pixel.
Size of one $1$-megapixel black and white image $=1\times 10^6$ bits.
Size of $8$ such images $=8\times 10^6$ bits $=1\ MB$.
An $8$-color image needs $\log_2 8=3$ bits per pixel.
Size of one $8$-megapixel $8$-color image $=8\times 10^6\times 3=24\times 10^6$ bits $=3\ MB$.
Total space $=1\ MB+3\ MB=4\ MB$.

UGC NET Computer Science PYQ

Consider the given number $(45)_y$ where $y$ is the base of the number. Some of the possible values of $y$ are given below.


(A) 5

(B) 6

(C) 7

(D) 8


Choose the correct answer from the options given below :






Go to Discussion

UGC NET Computer Science UGC NET PYQ UGC NET Computer Science UGC NET Computer Science August 2024 (Paper II) PYQ

Solution

In base $y$, digits must be less than base.

Number $(45)_y$ has digit 5.

Thus

$y>5$

Possible bases:

$6,7,8,\dots$

Given options:

6, 7, 8

Thus

(B), (C), (D)
