Question

Write a script to find Nmin, the smallest possible value for N in Eq. (1) so that ln(5) evaluated using myLog with Matlab's default double precision arithmetic is exact when written as a half-precision binary floating point number in engineering notation. Use decimal2binary developed in Module 1 to answer this question and do not use Matlab's half(). Just setting Nmin without an algorithm to find its value will not give any credit.
