Best answer 0 0 votes i think the range will be from all zeros to all once. so mantissa can be from 1.0000000....00 to 1.11111111...111 = 1 to $2-2^{-23}$ Tendua answered Oct 25, 2015 Tendua comment Share Follow See all 3 Comments 3 3 Comments reply Tendua commented Oct 25, 2015 reply Follow flag avinash . is that the answer given . ?? 0 0 replyShare sonu commented Oct 25, 2015 reply Follow flag u have to give exponent also.. ryt? So it should be 1.00000(23 times) * 2^(-126) And (2- 2-23)* 2^127 0 0 replyShare Arjun commented Oct 25, 2015 reply Follow flag Question is a bit ambiguous- also for smallest positive we have to consider denormalized representation. https://gateoverflow.in/20849/ 0 0 replyShare Please log in or register to add a comment.
