A word (on x86 systems) is: a. 4 bytes b. 16 bytes c. 8 bytes d. 16 bits 34, A doubleword (on x86 systems) is a. 4 bytes b. 4 bits c. 8 bytes d. 16 bits 35, A signed integer stores the sign in the: a. LSB b. MSB e. Memory d. None of the Above 36. If an integer's sign bit is 1, the integer is: a. positive b. negative c. large d. None of the Above 37 An SBYTE can be equal to/ CONTAIN any of these pairs of values (must contain BOTH): a. b. c. d. +128 (or) -128 -127 (or) +128 -128 (or) +127 None of the Above are values that can be in that TYPE of location 38: The expression-.

Both A and B are correct 39, Which type of program can usually run on multiple platforms? a. device driver b. business application c. embedded system d. assembler Page 6 of 8

Explanation / Answer

32)
Quad refers to 4.
Hence Qword=4 words
Each word is of 2 bytes
Hence, 4*2=8 bytes
The answer is C)8 bytes


33)
A word on x86 system is of 16 bits by convention.
Hence answer is D)16 bits

34)
A double word or Dword is 2 words
And each word is of 16 bits
Hence 16*2=32 bits
converting bits into bytes, 32/8 = 4 bytes
Hence, the answer is A)4 bytes

35)
A sign of a signed integer is stored in MSB(Most Sugnificant Bit)
Hence, the answer is B)MSB

36)
If the MSB i.e., sign bit of integer is 1 then it is a negative integer. If the signe bit is 0 then it is a positive integer.
Hence the answer is B)Negative

37)
The max value of SBYTE is 127 and min value of SBYTE is -128
Hence the answer is C)-128 (or) +127

38)
The truth table for AND is:
0.0=0
0.1=0
1.0=0
1.1=1
~(X.Y) means applying negation on the above truth table:
~0=1 Here X=0, Y=0
~0=1 Here X=0, Y=1
~0=1 Here X=1, Y=0
~1=0 Here X=1, Y=1
Hence when both X and Y are false, the given expression is true.
The answer is A)X and Y are both false

39)
Assembler type of program can run on multiple platforms.
For example we have Java program which is complied once but can run on any platform. The complied form is the assembled code.
Hence the answer is D)Assembler
