Assume we are using the simple model for floating-point representation as given in the text (the representation uses a 14-bit format, 5 bits for the exponent with a bias of 15, a normalized mantissa of 8 bits, and a single sign bit for the number):

a) show how the computer would represent the numbers 100.0 and 0.25 using this floating-point format.

b) Show how the computer would add the two floating-point numbers in part a by changing one of the numbers so they are both expressed using the same power of 2.

c) show how the computer would represent the sum in part b using the given floating-point representation. What decimal value for the sum is the computer actually storing? explain.

Match the sentence fragment in the first column with the appropriate ending in the second column. a little per favore?

Write a program that performs a simple n-body simulation, called "jumping leprechauns." this simulation involves n leprechauns, numberd 1 to n. it maintains a gold value g_i for each leprechaun i, which begins with each leprechaun starting out with a million dollars worth of gold, that is, g_i = 1000000 for each i = 1,. in addition, the simulation also maintains, for each leprachaun,i, a place on the horizon, which is represented as a double-precision floating point number, x_i. in each iteration of the simulation, the simulation processes the leprachauns in order. processing a leprachaun i during its iteration begins by computing a new place on the horizon for i, which is determined by the assignment:
