#Initialisation
n=8                                 #8 bit
n2=16                               #16 bit
n3=32                               #32 bit

#Calculation
c=2**n                               #value for 8 bit
c2=2**n2                             #value for 16 bit
c3=2**n3                             #value for 32 bit

#Result
print'An 8-bit word can take 2^8 = %d values\n'%c
print'An 16-bit word can take 2^16 = %d values\n'%c2
print'An 32-bit word can take 2^32 = %f x 10^9 values\n'%(c3/10**9)

An 8-bit word can take 2^8 = 256 values

An 16-bit word can take 2^16 = 65536 values

An 32-bit word can take 2^32 = 4.000000 x 10^9 values

#Result
print'An 8-bit word resolution = %.2f percent\n'%p
print'An 16-bit word resolution = %.4f percent\n'%p2
print'An 32-bit word resolution = %.9f percent\n'%p3

An 8-bit word resolution = 0.39 percent

An 16-bit word resolution = 0.0015 percent

An 32-bit word resolution = 0.000000023 percent
