a.What is the maximum and minimum integer that can be represented by an 8-bit computer where first bit is used for sign.

b.What percent error we would have in representing the value = 0.345678 in a computer where we can use s0, s1 the signs, d1=2 digits, d2=2 digits, do=2 digits in representation sod1,d2x10^sod0

^c.

The Maclaurin series expansion for cos x is ;

cos x = 1 x²/2! + x⁴/4! + x⁶/6! + x⁸/8! +

Starting with the simplest version, cos x = 1, add terms one at a time to estimate cos(/3). After each new term is added, compute the true and approximate percent relative errors. Use your calculator or MATLAB to determine the true value. Add terms until the absolute value of the approximate error estimate falls below an error criterion conforming to two significant figures.
