- Synopsis:
-
The basic principles of the computer arithmetic are presented. The implementations of basic arithmetic operations and theirs implementation by logical circuits are considered for both unsigned and signed numbers. The floating-point and decimal numbers representations are discussed. The most important methods and algorithms to evaluate the elementary functions (e.g. square root, sin, logarithms etc.) and theirs implementation by logical circuits are presented. Some non-conventional number systems are discussed.
