For example, the number `0.7106` in 16-bit fixed point is 0.71506 * 65536 = 46,569 = `$B5E9`
How do we convert the number `$B5E9` back into `.7106` ? By _digit peeling._
* Q. How do we convert the number `$B5E9` back into `.7106` ?
* Q. By _digit peeling._
Given a fractional number `N` represented as 16-bit integer then:
Given a fractional number `N` represented as a 16-bit integer then the pseudo-code is:
1. Multiply N by 10
2. Print the Integer Part digit
2. Print the Integer Part of `N` (a digit)
3. Set the Integer Part to zero
5. Have we printed the number of decimal digits we want? If no then goto step 1
5. Have we printed the total number of decimal digits we want? If no then goto step 1
Example:
