1. (20 points) Similar to the IEEE 32-bit single precision floating-point format, the IEEE 16-bit half precision floating-point format uses 5 bits for the exponent, in excess-15 code. a) Convert 2.5e-2 into IEEE 16-bit format. b) If the exponent cannot be all O, then what is the smallest positive number this format can represent? c) If the exponent cannot be all 1, then what is the greatest positive number this format can represent?
