Most Significant Bit Intuition prompt incorrect

Open DanielHabib opened this issue 9 years ago • 0 comments

"prompt": "Where is the most significant bit in a bit vector located?", "answer": "the leftmost bit is the most significant bit" If you write a number out in binary e.g., like 1000 0000 for 128, yeah that's true. But otherwise it often depends on the bit numbering and endianness (in a multi-byte bit vector).
