Problem #1 (100 Points)

 Write a C program that reads a character and

displays each bit of the character.

 Note: A character has 8 bits.

 Hint: Use a mask 0x80, and left shift the mask (or
right shift the character read) 1 bit at a time.

 Problem Statement
 Write a C program that displays the first 8 bits of each
character value input into a variable named ch.
 (Hint: Assuming each character is stored using 8 bits, start by
using the hexadecimal mask 80, which corresponds to the
binary number 10000000.
 If the result of the masking operation is a 0, display a 0; else
display a 1.
 Then shift the mask one place to the right to examine the
next bit, and so on until all bits in the variable ch have been
processed.)
 * Test your program against 4 characters (2 capital and 2
lower case)
 * Check your result against the “alphabet to binary” tables in
the next 2 pages.

 Problem #2 (100 Points)
 Write a C program to convert decimal number
from 1 to 1000 to binary string and hexadecimal
string
 Output:
DEC 1: BIN 1 HEX 1
DEC 2: BIN 10 HEX 2

 Hint: convert 1792(10) decimal to binary

Decimal Number Operation Quotient Remainder Binary Result

1792 ÷ 2= 896 0 0
896 ÷ 2 = 448 0 00
448 ÷ 2 = 224 0 000
224 ÷ 2 = 112 0 0000
112 ÷ 2 = 56 0 00000
56 ÷ 2= 28 0 000000
28 ÷ 2= 14 0 0000000
14 ÷ 2= 7 0 00000000
7 ÷ 2= 3 1 100000000
3 ÷ 2= 1 1 1100000000
1 ÷ 2= 0 1 11100000000
0 done.
