  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.

  3. Parity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parity

    Parity file in data processing, created in conjunction with data files and used to check data integrity and assist in data recovery; Parity (mathematics), indicates whether a number is even or odd Parity of a permutation, indicates whether a permutation has an even or odd number of inversions; Parity function, a Boolean function whose value is ...

  4. 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.

  5. Parity (mathematics) - Wikipedia

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

    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 ...

  6. Parity flag - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parity_flag

    In computer processors the parity flag indicates if the numbers of set bits is odd or even in the binary representation of the result of the last operation. It is normally a single bit in a processor status register. For example, assume a machine where a set parity flag indicates even parity.

  7. RAM parity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RAM_parity

    Logic parity RAM recalculates an always-valid parity bit each time a byte is read from memory, instead of storing the parity bit when the memory is written to; the calculated parity bit, which will not reveal if the data has been corrupted (hence the name "fake parity"), is presented to the parity-checking logic.

  8. Hamming (7,4) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hamming(7,4)

    The original 4 data bits are converted to seven bits (hence the name "Hamming(7,4)") with three parity bits added to ensure even parity using the above data bit coverages. The first table above shows the mapping between each data and parity bit into its final bit position (1 through 7) but this can also be presented in a Venn diagram. The first ...

  9. Double factorial - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Double_factorial

    In mathematics, the double factorial of a number n, denoted by n‼, is the product of all the positive integers up to n that have the same parity (odd or even) as n. [1] That is, n ! ! = ∏ k = 0 ⌈ n 2 ⌉ − 1 ( n − 2 k ) = n ( n − 2 ) ( n − 4 ) ⋯ . {\displaystyle n!!=\prod _{k=0}^{\left\lceil {\frac {n}{2}}\right\rceil -1}(n-2k ...
