Input: n, bn-1, bn-2,..., bo giving an n-bit binary number b;2¹ (b; {0,1})
Output: r is the value of the integer.
1: x +0
2: for i = 0 to n - 1 do
3: if b = 1 then
4:
power ← 1
for j = 1 to i do
5:
6:
7:
8:
9: end if
10: end for
power 2 x power
end for
x+x+power
(a) What is an appropriate basic operation to count?
(b) How many basic operations are done in the worst case?
(c) How many basic operations are done on average (over all possible 2" n-bit binary
numbers)?
