#include <stdio.h>

struct Single

{

    int num;

};

 

void printSingle(int f)

{

    int binaryNum[33];

    int i = 0;

    while(f>0)

    {

        binaryNum[i] = f % 2;

        f = f/2;

        i++;

    }

    for (int j=i-1; j>= 0; j--)

    {

        printf("%d",binaryNum[j]);

    }

}

 

int main()

{

    struct Single single;

    single.num = 33;

    printf("Number: %d\n",single.num);

    printSingle(single.num);

    return 0;

}

1. Why does little-endian vs. big-endian matter here in this code
2. Describe how pointer casting works to get the value into a different format.
3. Describe how you could break apart a floating-point number into parts
using bitwise operators? Would that care about endian?
