I have what might be more of a math question but this question is stemming from reading my computer systems book in the chapter on Virtual Memory... so I feel justified asking it here.
The book states:
Each virtual page is P = 2p bytes in size.
My algebra is rusty which is probably the reason I need to ask this. Now, for an example that I'm looking at, we know that P = 1024. Does this mean that I can figure out what p is by simply identifying which p will make 1024 = 2p true?
If my epiphany is true and correct, then 1024 = 210 should be my answer. That is P=1024
and p=10
.
