Chapter 2: Q55E (page 137)

55. What is the bit string corresponding to the difference of two sets?

Short Answer

Expert verified

The bit in the ith position of the bit string for the difference is one if the ith bit of the first string is 1 and the ith bit of the second string is 0, and is 0 otherwise.

Step by step solution

01

Step 1

  • We are given two-bit strings, representing two sets.
  • We want to represent the set of elements that are in the first set but not the second.
  • Thus, the bit in the position of the bit string for the difference is one if the ith bit of the first string is 1 and the ith bit of the second string is 0, and is 0 otherwise.
