    Here we can show how to convert a base-10 real number into an IEEE 754 binary32 format using the following outline: Consider a real number with an integer and a fraction part such as 12.375; Convert and normalize the integer part into binary; Convert the fraction part using the following technique as shown here

  3. Bit array - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bit_array

    A bit array (also known as bitmask, [1] bit map, bit set, bit string, or bit vector) is an array data structure that compactly stores bits. It can be used to implement a simple set data structure . A bit array is effective at exploiting bit-level parallelism in hardware to perform operations quickly.

  4. Shift JIS - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shift_JIS

    If the first byte is odd, the second byte must be in the range 0x40 to 0x9E (but cannot be 0x7F); if the first byte is even, the second byte must in the range 0x9F to 0xFC. Shift JIS only guarantees that the first byte of two-byte characters will be high-bit-set (0x80–0xFF); the value of the second byte can be either high or low.

  5. Computer number format - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computer_number_format

    A byte is a bit string containing the number of bits needed to represent a character. On most modern computers, this is an eight bit string. Because the definition of a byte is related to the number of bits composing a character, some older computers have used a different bit length for their byte. [2]

    Data specifications SET OF (unordered) and SEQUENCE OF (guaranteed order) User definable type BSON \x0A (1 byte) True: \x08\x01 False: \x08\x00 (2 bytes) int32: 32-bit little-endian 2's complement or int64: 64-bit little-endian 2's complement: Double: little-endian binary64: UTF-8-encoded, preceded by int32-encoded string length in bytes

  7. Bitwise operation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bitwise_operation

    Thus, if both bits in the compared position are 1, the bit in the resulting binary representation is 1 (1 × 1 = 1); otherwise, the result is 0 (1 × 0 = 0 and 0 × 0 = 0). For example: 0101 (decimal 5) AND 0011 (decimal 3) = 0001 (decimal 1) The operation may be used to determine whether a particular bit is set (1) or cleared (0). For example ...

  8. LEB128 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LEB128

    Break the number up into groups of 7 bits. Output one encoded byte for each 7 bit group, from least significant to most significant group. Each byte will have the group in its 7 least significant bits. Set the most significant bit on each byte except the last byte. The number zero is usually encoded as a single byte 0x00.

  9. Hex editor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hex_editor

    A hex editor (or binary file editor or byte editor) is a computer program that allows for manipulation of the fundamental binary data that constitutes a computer file. The name 'hex' comes from 'hexadecimal', a standard numerical format for representing binary data. A typical computer file occupies multiple areas on the storage medium, whose ...
