    Y10-01-P4: Binary arithmetic

    Y10-01-P4: Binary arithmetic

    Learning objectives
    In this lesson students will learn to:

    • add together two positive 8-bit binary patterns


    • define what is meant by the term 'overflow error’
    • describe the effects of an overflow error.

    For more detail on this topic, and additional student activities, refer to
    Topic 2 of the student book.

    Adding in binary

    One of the most common operations that you will need to carry out is
    adding binary numbers together.

    The method you will use is the same method you may have been
    taught to add denary numbers when you were younger: column
    addition.

    Golden rules
    There are 4 rules to remember. If you always apply them, you’ll get
    your binary additions right every time.

    0+0=0
    0+1=1
    1 + 1 = 0 carry 1
    1 + 1 + 1 = 1 carry 1

    Addition
    1 0001
    4+ 0 1 0 0+
    5 0101

    1 0001 In column 1, 1 + 1 = 2; so write a 0


    1+ 0 0 0 1+ down and carry 1 over into the next
    2 1 column on the left.
    0010

    3 0011 In column 2, 1 + 1 + 1 = 3 lots of 2 = 1


    7+ 0 1 1 1+ lot of 4 plus 1 lot of 2; so write a 1 down
    10 1 1 1
    and carry 1 over into the next column on
    1010 the left.

    Overflow

    Let’s try one more together:

    1 1 0 0 0 1 1 1
    1 1 1 1 0 1 0 0 +
    1 0 1 1 1 0 1 1
    1 1

    Is this answer correct?


    What’s happened to the last carry digit?

    Overflow
    What you’ve just seen is called overflow.

    It means the result of the calculation is too large for the space allocated
    (in this case 1 byte).

    The way a computer handles this will depend on how it’s setup.

    It could crash and report an overflow error.


    It could truncate the answer (simply leave off the extra one).
    It could wrap the number around back to zero.

    Handling overflow in a manual calculation


    Let’s look again at our previous example:
    1 1 0 0 0 1 1 1
    1 1 1 1 0 1 0 0 +
    1 0 1 1 1 0 1 1
    1 1

    We know there is one final digit to represent, but because it has


    overflowed, we need to be clear that this is the case.
    Our final answer should look something like this:
    1 1 0 0 0 1 1 1
    1 1 1 1 0 1 0 0 +
    (1) 1 0 1 1 1 0 1 1
    1 1

    In programming…

    Python is a language that is flexible with storage space.


    Integers are not limited to a specific number of bits and can expand
    to fit available memory.
    In some applications, it’s important to work out how much space is
    ‘just enough’, particularly when memory might be short.
    Such applications include embedded systems where the hardware
    is basic.

    Wrap up: you have learned how to…


     Add together two positive 8-bit binary integers.
    • Using the golden rules:
    0+0=0
    1+0=1
    1 + 1 = 0 carry 1
    1 + 1 + 1 = 1 carry 1
     Define what is meant by the term 'overflow error’.
    • When the result of a calculation is too large for the space
    allocated.
     Describe the effects of an overflow error.
    • An error could be reported, the value could be truncated, or the
    number could be wrapped around to 0.
