Binary Fraction to Decimal
Fixed-point representation drives digital signal processing hardware where floating-point arithmetic is too expensive. The bit pattern 0.1011 represents an unsigned fractional binary value. The radix point separates the integer portion from the fractional portion. Each position to the right of the radix point carries a positional weight of a negative power of two. Determine the exact decimal equivalent of this binary fraction.
Constraints
- Assume an unsigned fixed-point representation.
- The radix point is explicitly shown and fixed in place.
- Answers must be exact decimal values without rounding.
