Digital Hardware Homework 1

This document outlines homework assignments for the digital hardware course CE213, including number conversions between binary, decimal, and hexadecimal, exploring number ranges and bit sizes, encoding and decoding data using BCD, ASCII, and parity checks, and examining bit, nibble, byte, and word sizes. Students are asked to perform conversions between numbering systems, determine maximum values for different bit lengths, encode and decode data, and analyze errors and data representation at different levels. The homework covers fundamental concepts of digital systems including data representation and encoding.
