@ -35,13 +35,13 @@ $1.significand \times 2^{exponent}$ where the {\em significand}

\item The unnormalized binary value of $-2.625$ is $10.101$
\item The normalized value of $-2.625$ is $1.0101 \times 2^1$

\item We need not store the `1.' because {\em all} normalized floating
\item We need not store the `1.' part because {\em all} normalized floating
point numbers will start that way. Thus we can save memory when storing
normalized values by adding 1 to the significand.
normalized values by inserting a `1.' to the left of significand.
