Signed number representation
▶️ Here we would need to consider sign, meaning we represent both positive and negative numbers.
📌 Sign and magnitude
With this method we reserve the most significant bit of the left most bit for sign.
This bit is called sign bit.
range becomes from -2^n-1 -1 to 2^n-1 -1
