Arithmetic: addition
Unsigned binary addition follows the same rules as ordinary arithmetic
Example: 4-bit UB
carry 0 1 1 1
0 0 1 1 3
0 1 1 1 7
result 1 0 1 0 10
Two's complement addition also follows the same rules as UB
Example: 4-bit 2C
carry 1 1 1 1
1 0 1 1 -5
0 1 1 1 7
result 0 0 1 0 2
Note that the carry from the high-order bit may be ignored.
How do we subtract?
Negate the number to be subtracted and add
a - b = a + (-b)
