A+
bool, signed char, unsigned char - correct answer ✔✔1 byte (8 bit) data types
signed short, unsigned short - correct answer ✔✔2 byte (16 bit) data types
signed int, unsigned int, single-precision float - correct answer ✔✔4 byte (32 bit) data types
signed long, unsigned long, double - correct answer ✔✔8 byte (64 bit) data types
Callee Saved Registers - correct answer ✔✔Preserves information across function calls;
In order to use one, you have to preserve its value and restore it before exiting the call. All
registers except DSDC89,10,11
rdx, rsi, rdx, rcx, r8, r9 - correct answer ✔✔Diane's Silk Dress Costs 89$;
The register order that function arguments are stored in
-2^7 to (2^7)-1 - correct answer ✔✔Value range of a signed char
-2^15 to (2^15)-1 - correct answer ✔✔Value range of a signed short
0 to (2^16)-1 - correct answer ✔✔Value range of an unsigned short
, 0 to (2^8)-1 - correct answer ✔✔Value range of an unsigned char
-2^31 to (2^31)-1 - correct answer ✔✔Value range of a signed int
0 to (2^32)-1 - correct answer ✔✔Value range of an unsigned int
-2^63 to (2^63)-1 - correct answer ✔✔Value range of a signed long
0 to (2^64)-1 - correct answer ✔✔Value range of an unsigned long
1.17x10^(-38) to 3.4x10^(38) - correct answer ✔✔Value range of a single-precision float
6 decimal places - correct answer ✔✔Precision of a single-precision float
2.3x10(-308) to 1.7x10(308) - correct answer ✔✔Value range of a double-precision float
(double)
15 decimal places - correct answer ✔✔Precision of a double-precision float
Binary - correct answer ✔✔Base 2 format; each new "place" indicates a new power of 2. Only
stores 0s and 1s
Converting a whole number to binary - correct answer ✔✔Divide by 2, store remainder, read
bottom up
Converting a decimal to binary - correct answer ✔✔Multiply by 2, store remainder, read top
down, stored after a decimal point
