The n-bit fixed-point representation of an unsigned real number XXuses ff bits for the fraction part. Let i=n−fi = n-f. The range of decimal values for XX in this representation is

  1. A.

    2−fto 2i2^{-f} to \ 2^i

  2. B.

    2−fto (2i−2−f)2^{-f} to \ \left ( 2^{i} - 2^{-f} \right )

  3. C.

    0 to 2i2^i

  4. D.

    0 to (2i−2−f)0 \ to \ \left ( 2^{i} - 2^{-f} \right )
