Write a C function named bitwisedFloatCompare(float number1, float number2) that tests whether a floating point number number1 is less than, equal to or greater than another floating point number number2, by simply comparing their floating point representations bitwise from left to right, stopping as soon as the first differing bit is encountered. The fact that this can be done easily is the main motivation for biased exponent notation. The function should return 1 if number1 > number2, return -1 if number2 > number1 and should return 0 if the two numbers are equal. Please note the solution is constrained to be implemented using bitwise comparison of the two numbers.

FloatingPointRepresentationFunctions.c

FloatCompare

Description: Accepts two float numbers and compares them bitwise basedon floating point representations. This function will have to convert the given numbers into IEEE floating representation and then do bitwise comparison Preconditions: two input arguments are passed

Postconditions: Returns 1,-1 or 0 based on the comparison

1 if number1>number2

-1 if number2>number1

0 if equal

Calls: N/A

Called by: main

int bitwisedFloatCompare(float number1,float number2)

{

// Write the function to compare and return the corresponding
