I had to answer some questions for homework but i can't seem to find the answer to all of them and no one knows the answer to these questions i wanted to know if maybe anyone could help me out??
OH yeah BTW it's Assembly language.....being that there arent any AL boards out there i figured that maybe some experience C programmers could help me out thanks allot i really appreciate it!
Assuming that bits 0-4 holds a store a department number and bits 5-7 holds a store number with in the following bit mapped field. What are the values shown here.
11000101 store= , department =
00101001 store= , department =
01010101 store= , department =
