consider the floating point system: f=[a=2,k−=−6,k+=6,t=4] the number of positive normalized elements in the system is in matlab

Using the given floating point system parameters, we can determine the number of positive normalized elements in the system using Matlab as follows:

main.m
a = 2;
k_minus = -6;
k_plus = 6;
t = 4;

% Upper and lower bounds for normalized number exponent
exp_max = k_plus - a + 1;
exp_min = k_minus - t + 1;

% Total number of normalized numbers
num_norm = exp_max - exp_min + 1;

% Number of positive normalized numbers
num_pos_norm = floor(num_norm/2);

disp(['Number of positive normalized elements: ', num2str(num_pos_norm)]);

This code calculates the upper and lower bounds for the normalized number exponent, and then determines the total number of normalized numbers and the number of positive normalized numbers in the given floating point system. Running this in Matlab would output the number of positive normalized elements in the system.
