Any engineering anons willing to help?The answer is supposedly C but I have no idea how to get to that solution.
(no.of d-ff to represent 1 bcd digit) x 8
3 d-ff only can represent digits 0-7 (8-9 missing)
>>174698
why are 3 D-FFs able to represent 0-7 digits and it's basically just 4 x 8 right?Sorry I'm not that familiar with D flip flops.

Technically, you only need 27 bits to "store" an 8-digit decimal number, whether it's "expressed" in BCD, binary, unary, or ASCII. They need to lrn2english.
That said:
1248
....0
:::.7
...:8
:..:9
If you only had 3 bits, you'd not have the 4th bit you needed for 8 and 9.
BCD starts again for each digit, so 1234 (.:..:.::..: in binary) would be :... .:.. ::.. ..:. in BCD.

why are even taking that course if you can't even understand the function of main components in logic circuits

Well, he did say "engineering", so you can understand why CS101 might be so baffling to him.

That and also because I wasn't listening during the lectures on D flip flops.

Ohh I get it now.Thanks anon.
