Basics of Binary AddressesComputer system assigns the binary addresses to the memory locations. However, The system uses amount of bits to address a memory location. Using 1 bit, we can address two memory locations. Using 2 bits we can address 4 and using 3 bits we can address 8 memory locations. A pattern can be identified in the mapping between the number of bits in the address and the range of the memory locations. We know, these n bits can be divided into two parts, that are, K bits and (n-k) bits.
