Term Definition
2's complement Binary numbers are generally used to represent negative numbers.
Negative numbers are expressed by
Inverting all bits of a positive number and
adding 1 to the result .
Ex. -1 is expressed as 2's complement.
-1 can be calculated by ０ -1 .
−“1” expresses with 2’s Complement (for 8 bits)
00000000 (= 0)
-)
(In the case of 1, minus 1)
00000001 (= 1)
11111111 (=-1)
There are methods for simple calculation without performing this kind of computa-
tion.
For instance,
Negative number = inverting all bits of a positive number and then
adding 1 to the result .
00000001 (= 1)
11111110
11111111 (=-1)
Invert all bits
Plus 1
The first digit is used to judge whether the number is positive or negative.
•
When 0: Positive number (or 0)
•
When 1: Negative number
The advantage of two's complement numbers is that positive and negative num-
bers can be used as is in calculations.
Ex. When -1+10=9
11111111 (= -1)
00001001 (= 9)
+)00001010 (= 10)
