  • Returns a minimum signed integer that is possible to represent in a binary format within bitsCount bits using the current representation.

    Precondition

    Parameter bitsCount must be greater than zero.

    Precondition

    For the SignedNumberRepresentation.biased representation, the bias must be non-negative.

    Declaration

    Swift

    public func minRepresentableNumber(bitsCount: Int) -> Int

  • Returns a maximum signed integer that is possible to represent in a binary format within bitsCount bits using the current representation.

    Precondition

    Parameter bitsCount must be greater than zero.

    Precondition

    For the SignedNumberRepresentation.biased representation, the bias must be non-negative.
