Well, really the reason for the bias is so that you can get a negative exponent. If E = 10, then the exponent will be 2^-117. You might still need a negative exponent with a positive sign. The offset is used rather than two's complement maybe because of that sorting thing but also because of the math itself, when doing operations on two FP numbers. |
