Abstract Decimal notation using Arabic numerals is the standard system for writing numbers in everyday life. However, in many computing applications, other notations are used. Chiefly: binary and hexadecimal. Learning algorithms to translate names between these numerical systems forms a foundation for developing translations between more complex languages.
Conversion Algorithms: Decimal to Another Base
Conversion of Natural Numbers The unsigned whole numbers, the natural numbers, written in decimal 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, . . . can be converted to binary by repeated division

by 2. Dividing a number by 2 produces one of two remainders: r = 0 or r = 1. The natural numbers can be converted to hexadecimal by repeated division by 16. Dividing a number by 16 produces one of 16 remainder: r = 0 through r = 15 = F. ? Convert q = 14 to binary.

Conversion of Integers
The signed integers can be represented in two's complement notation. To write a decimal integer m in two's complement notation do the following.
1. Convert the natural number |m| to binary using repeated remaindering as described in the previous section.
2. Append a leading sign bit 0.
3. If m 0, return the result of step 2. Otherwise, if m < 0, return the two's complement of the result of step 2.
The two's complement operation is performed as follows.
1. From right-to-left, copy each bit up to and including the first 1.
2. Flip (one's complement) the remaining bits to the left.
The idea is: A number m and its negative -m add to 0. Therefore, if m = 0100 1100 is a signed integer written in two's complement notation, then m and m's complement (its negative) m add to 0.
1. This integer m = 0100 1100 is positive: It's leading, left-most, bit is 0.
2. The value of m is decimal 76.
3. The two's complement of m is m = 1011 0100.
The sum of m and m is shown below with carry bits on the top
row. c 1 11111000 m=01001100 m=10110100
00000000
By construction, the sum of m and it's two's complement m is 2s where s is the word length, size, or number of bits in m.

To write 2s in binary requires s + 1 bits. On an s bit computer the overflow, last carry, bit is discarded. Therefore, on an s bit computer
s 0's
m + m = 0 =0000 ? ? ? 0000
Consider this example. Let m = 227 which when written as an unsigned binary number, is 1100 0111. To write m as a signed binary number, append a leading 0 so that
+227 = 0 1100 0111
1. 161 1010 0001 2. 1010 0001 0 1010 0001 3. If m = +161, return 0 1010 0001
else (if m = -161) return 1 0101 1111 The two's complement of a positive integer is a negative integer. The two's complement of a negative integer is a positive integer.
To write 2 = (10)2 requires 2 bits. To write 22 = (100)2 requires 3 bits. To write 28 = (1000)2 requires 4 bits.

To write -227, perform the two's complement operation on 0 1100 0111 to get
-227 = 1 0011 1001
Biased Notation for Integers
Biased notation is an alternative method used to represent signed integers. Biased notation represents an integer n as
nb = n + b
where b 0 is called the bias or excess. Adding a bias b to an integer n translates it to the right giving it a a new name. To compute the value n of a biased integer nb, solve the equation nb = n + b for n = nb - b, that is, subtract b from nb.
For illustration, we'll use 8 bit strings .
(b7b6b5b4 b3b2b1b0)b=127
Each bi is either a 0 or a 1 for each i = 0, . . . , 7. Using a bias of b = 127 the 256 integers from -127 to 128 are named 0 to 255. For instance, consider the biased number
(1111 1100)b=127 = nb = n + b = (1111 1100)2 + 127
Horner's rule converts the binary number (1111 1100)2 to 252.
For instance, pick a bias b = 32, and notice the integers from n = -32 to n = 31 map to biased integers from n32 = 0 to n32 = 63.
Let n = -37 and let the bias be b = 127. Then the biased number (-37)127 = (n)b = n + b = -37 + 127 = 90 is the biased name for the value -37.
The subscript b = 127 is a hint to interpret the bit string as biased number with bias b = 127. Drop it when this is clear from context. The diagram show the integers from -127 to 128 along the top line. The bottom line shows the biased numbers 0 to 255 which are used to name integers from -127 to 128.

2 6 14 30 62 126 252
1 3 7 15 31 63 126 252
0
255
Subtract the bias b = 127 from n + b = 252 to get n = 125 as the value of the biased number
(1111 1100)b=127 = 125
Biased notation is used to encode positive and negative exponents in floating point notation. That is, let
t = ?1. f ? 2eb
be a normalized floating point number. The exponent eb is a biased integer. As a small example, the bias could be b = 4 and exponents from e4 = 0 to e4 = 7 represent values -4 to 3.
