A decoder having an element decoding unit generating external information for input data, including an exponent position determining unit, when the external information output from the element decoding unit is input, of information excluding a sign bit from the external information, specifying an exponent that is a bit position where a value different from a sign bit first appears, a mantissa obtaining unit obtaining information of 1-bit or a plurality of bits in a position next to the exponent as a mantissa out of the external information, a storage unit storing the exponent and the mantissa and a restoring unit restoring the external information by reading the exponent and the mantissa stored in the storage unit, wherein the element decoding unit performs iteration decoding based on the restored external information is utilized. |
