Technically the maximum negative number is -1 (assuming integers) lol But really, I would work backwards from the 2's complement -> binary conversion. remember flip all bits and add one to get to decimal? Use that same logic. so 1011 becomes 100 + 1 = 101 which is 5, make it negative -5. By that logic, 1000 is the most negative number for 4 bits
By far the easiest and most simple explanation to understand. thank you
what is the minimum?
what is the maximum negative number in two's complement... how it represent large negative numbers....?
