33 Problem Implement New Nonunary Instructions Process Floating Point Numbers Assume Float Q37111362

33. This problem is to implement new nonunary instructions toprocess floating point numbers. Assume that floating point numbersare stored with all the special values of IEEE 754 but with atwo-byte cell having one sign bit, six exponent bits, ninesignificand bits, and a hidden bit. The exponent uses excess 31notation except for denormalized numbers, which use excess 30.

(a) Implement a new unary instruction in place of DECO calledBINFO, which stands for binary floating point output. Permit thesame addressing modes as with DECO. The value 3540 (hex), whichrepresents the normalized number 1.101 × 2–5, should be output as1.101000000b011010, where the letter b
