parity bits, majority voting, checksum and check digit (which is just data validation)

17
Q

routers role in sending messages from private devices across a network

A

Routers do network address translation to switch the private IP with their own public IP

18
Q

Fixed point (don’t recall just read)

A

assume unsigned

19
Q

Floating point

A

assume 2s compliment(signed)

20
Q

effect of the mantissa when positive and negative (floating point)

A

Like standard form but base 10 is replaced by base 2

Mantissa: is binary number (fixed point)
Exponent: multiplication value

21
Q

normalisation

A

“memory efficiency”
positive begins 0.1 instead of 000.01
negative begins 1.0 instead of 111.01
