Booths Algorithm

Booth's algorithm is used to multiply two signed binary numbers. It requires converting the operands to two's complement and using twice as many bits as the operands. The algorithm performs multiple passes, examining the last two bits of the product in each pass to determine whether to add, subtract or do nothing to the left half of the product before shifting it right. The final product is converted back to decimal to verify the correct signed value is obtained.
