Detailed Solution
Download Solution PDFThe range of n bit word in 2’s complement representation is,
\(\left( {-{2^{n - 1}} } \right)\;to\;\left( { {2^{n - 1}-1}} \right)\)
(n-1) is used here because out of n bits 1 bit is used as a sign bit
There is one extra negative number because "0" has only a single representation in 2's complement form
For 8 bit word, the range will be -128 to 127.
