  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 ...

  3. Parity function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parity_function

    An infinite parity function is a function : {,} {,} mapping every infinite binary string to 0 or 1, having the following property: if and are infinite binary strings differing only on finite number of coordinates then () = if and only if and differ on even number of coordinates.

  4. 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.

  5. 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 ...

  6. FLAGS register - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FLAGS_register

    The FLAGS register is the status register that contains the current state of an x86 CPU.The size and meanings of the flag bits are architecture dependent. It usually reflects the result of arithmetic operations as well as information about restrictions placed on the CPU operation at the current time.

  7. 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 ...

  8. Collatz conjecture - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Collatz_conjecture

    The parity sequence is the same as the sequence of operations. Using this form for f(n), it can be shown that the parity sequences for two numbers m and n will agree in the first k terms if and only if m and n are equivalent modulo 2 k. This implies that every number is uniquely identified by its parity sequence, and moreover that if there are ...

  9. Mathematics of cyclic redundancy checks - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mathematics_of_cyclic...

    2-bit errors in a (multiple) distance of the longest bitfilter of even parity to a generator polynomial are not detected; all others are detected. For degrees up to 32 there is an optimal generator polynomial with that degree and even number of terms; in this case the period mentioned above is 2 n − 1 − 1 {\displaystyle 2^{n-1}-1} .
