  2. Parity bit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parity_bit

    Accordingly, there are two variants of parity bits: even parity bit and odd parity bit. In the case of even parity, for a given set of bits, the bits whose value is 1 are counted. If that count is odd, the parity bit value is set to 1, making the total count of occurrences of 1s in the whole set (including the parity bit) an even number. If the ...

    Even and odd numbers have opposite parities, e.g., 22 (even number) and 13 (odd number) have opposite parities. In particular, the parity of zero is even. [2] Any two consecutive integers have opposite parity. A number (i.e., integer) expressed in the decimal numeral system is even or odd according to whether its last digit is even or odd. That ...

  4. Parity of a permutation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parity_of_a_permutation

    The permutation is odd if and only if this factorization contains an odd number of even-length cycles. Another method for determining whether a given permutation is even or odd is to construct the corresponding permutation matrix and compute its determinant. The value of the determinant is the same as the parity of the permutation.

    Parity function, a Boolean function whose value is 1 if the input vector has an odd number of ones; Parity learning, a problem in machine learning; Parity of even and odd functions; Parity (physics), a symmetry property of physical quantities or processes under spatial inversion; Parity (biology), the number of times a female has given birth ...

  6. Serial port - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Serial_port

    The parity bit in each character can be set to one of the following: None (N) means that no parity bit is sent and the transmission is shortened. Odd (O) means that the parity bit is set so that the number of 1 bits is odd. Even (E) means that the parity bit is set so that the number of 1 bits is even.

  7. Parity function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parity_function

    Parity only depends on the number of ones and is therefore a symmetric Boolean function.. The n-variable parity function and its negation are the only Boolean functions for which all disjunctive normal forms have the maximal number of 2 n − 1 monomials of length n and all conjunctive normal forms have the maximal number of 2 n − 1 clauses of length n.

  8. Parity measurement - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parity_measurement

    A qubit is a two-level system, and when we measure one qubit, we can have either 1 or 0 as a result. One corresponds to odd parity, and zero corresponds to even parity. This is what a parity check is. This idea can be generalized beyond single qubits. This can be generalized beyond a single qubit and it is useful in QEC.

  9. Parity (physics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parity_(physics)

    The parity is usually written as a + (even) or − (odd) following the nuclear spin value. For example, the isotopes of oxygen include 17 O(5/2+), meaning that the spin is 5/2 and the parity is even. The shell model explains this because the first 16 nucleons are paired so that each pair has spin zero and even parity, and the last nucleon is in ...
