In sign and magnitude integer format, the smallest number is determined by the representation of the sign bit and the magnitude bits. For an n-bit representation, the smallest number is typically (- (2^{(n-1)} - 1)). For example, in an 8-bit format, the smallest number would be (-127), as the sign bit indicates negativity and the remaining bits represent the magnitude.

Which integer represents 10 pm the prevoius day?

To represent 10 PM the previous day as an integer, you would typically use a 24-hour clock format. In this format, 10 PM is represented as 22. Therefore, if you are counting from midnight (0), 10 PM the previous day would be represented as -2, since it is 2 hours before midnight of the current day.

What is the format of the integer when held in the PC?

There is no single format. Different architectures and platforms store data in different ways. An integer's representation depends on its length (in bytes), the byte-order (little-endian or big-endian) and whether they are signed or unsigned. If signed, they may be represented using either ones-complement or (more commonly) twos-complement. Most programming languages provide several integer types, however the actual representation of each of these types is machine-dependent and, therefore, implementation-dependent, even in the same language.
