PROJECT: Bitwise Logic Floats (BLF0)

OBJECTIVE

To apply bitwise logic in the application of decoding IEEE754-encoded 32-bit values, displaying the decoded result.

BACKGROUND

Much of our experience transacting in numbers on the computer has been with integer data. The format for unsigned data is straightforward.

Signed quantities undergo a process known as two's complement, which can be encoded/decoded to decipher the value stored within.

Floating point data also has an encoding scheme for storage. There are actually a few different floating point standards. One of the common, classic ones frequently found in use is that of IEEE754, which we will focus on in this project.
