\section*{Bitfields And Portions Of Integers} |
123 |
|
124 |
\begin{vworkmathtermglossaryenum} |
125 |
\item \mbox{\boldmath $a_{b}$} |
126 |
|
127 |
The $b$th bit of the integer $a$. Bits are numbered with the |
128 |
least significant bit ``0'', and consecutively through |
129 |
``$n-1$'', where $n$ is the total number of bits. |
130 |
|
131 |
In general, if $p$ is an $n$-bit unsigned integer, |
132 |
|
133 |
\begin{equation} |
134 |
\nonumber p = \sum_{i=0}^{n-1} 2^i p_i . |
135 |
\end{equation} |
136 |
|
137 |
\item \mbox{\boldmath $a_{c:b}$} |
138 |
|
139 |
The integer consisting of the $b$th through the |
140 |
$c$th bits of the integer $a$. Bits are numbered with the |
141 |
least significant bit ``0'', and consecutively through |
142 |
``$n-1$'', where $n$ is the total number of bits. |
143 |
|
144 |
For example, if $p$ is a 24-bit unsigned integer, then |
145 |
|
146 |
\begin{equation} |
147 |
\nonumber p = 2^{16}p_{23:16} + 2^{8}p_{15:8} + p_{7:0} . |
148 |
\end{equation} |
149 |
|
150 |
\item \mbox{\boldmath $a_{[b]}$} |
151 |
|
152 |
The $b$th word of the integer $a$. Words are numbered |
153 |
with the |
154 |
least significant word ``0'', and consecutively through |
155 |
``$n-1$'', where $n$ is the total number of words. |
156 |
|
157 |
In general, if $p$ is an $n$-word unsigned integer |
158 |
and $z$ is the wordsize in bits, |
159 |
|
160 |
\begin{equation} |
161 |
\nonumber p = \sum_{i=0}^{n-1} 2^{iz} p_i . |
162 |
\end{equation} |
163 |
|
164 |
\item \mbox{\boldmath $a_{[c:b]}$} |
165 |
|
166 |
The integer consisting of the $b$th through the |
167 |
$c$th word of the integer $a$. Words are numbered with the |
168 |
least significant word ``0'', and consecutively through |
169 |
``$n-1$'', where $n$ is the total number of words. |
170 |
|
171 |
For example, if $p$ is a 24-word unsigned integer and |
172 |
$z$ is the wordsize in bits, then |
173 |
|
174 |
\begin{equation} |
175 |
\nonumber p = 2^{16z}p_{[23:16]} + 2^{8z}p_{[15:8]} + p_{[7:0]} . |
176 |

188 |
\item \mbox{\boldmath $0$} |
189 |
|
190 |
$\mathbf{0}$ (in bold face) is used to denote either a vector or matrix |
191 |
populated with all zeroes. Optionally, in cases where the context is not clear |
192 |
or where there is cause to highlight the dimension, $\mathbf{0}$ may be subscripted |
193 |
to indicate the dimension, i.e. |
194 |
|
195 |
\begin{equation} |
196 |
\nonumber |
197 |
\mathbf{0}_3 = \left[\begin{array}{c} 0 \\ 0 \\ 0 \end{array}\right] |
198 |
\end{equation} |
199 |
|
200 |
\begin{equation} |
201 |
\nonumber |
202 |
\mathbf{0}_{3 \times 2} = \left[\begin{array}{cc} 0&0 \\ 0&0 \\ 0&0 \end{array}\right] |
203 |
\end{equation} |
204 |
|
205 |
\item \mbox{\boldmath $I$} |
206 |
|
207 |
$I$ is used to denote the square identity matrix (the matrix with all |
208 |
elements 0 except elements on the diagonal which are 1). |
209 |
Optionally, in cases where the context is not clear |
210 |
or where there is cause to highlight the dimension, $I$ may be subscripted |
211 |
to indicate the dimension, i.e. |
212 |
|
213 |
\begin{equation} |
214 |
\nonumber |
215 |
I = I_3 = I_{3 \times 3} = \left[\begin{array}{ccc} 1&0&0 \\ 0&1&0 \\ 0&0&1 \end{array}\right] |
