IEEE 754 floating point conversion to binary is done using which steps:

• 1. Find sign

  2. Convert the entire number as an unique big number

  3. Find exponent using any rule

  4. Convert exponent to binary

  5. Create the final binary

• 1. Find sign

  2. Convert each part of the number to binary

  3. Shift decimal point to find exponent

  4. Find exponent using N-excess

  5. Create the final binary
