  2. Parity bit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parity_bit

    To calculate parity data for the two drives, an XOR is performed on their data: 01101101 XOR 11010100: 10111001 ... Thue–Morse sequence; References

  3. Parity (mathematics) - Wikipedia

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

    The parity function maps a number to the number of 1's in its binary representation, modulo 2, so its value is zero for evil numbers and one for odious numbers. The Thue–Morse sequence, an infinite sequence of 0's and 1's, has a 0 in position i when i is evil, and a 1 in that position when i is odious. [23]

  4. Thue–Morse sequence - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thue–Morse_sequence

    It is sometimes called the fair share sequence because of its applications to fair division or parity sequence. The first few steps of this procedure yield the strings 0, 01, 0110, 01101001, 0110100110010110, and so on, which are the prefixes of the Thue–Morse sequence.

  5. Collatz conjecture - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Collatz_conjecture

    Which operation is performed, ⁠ 3n + 1 / 2 ⁠ or ⁠ n / 2 ⁠, depends on the parity. 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 ...

  6. Checksum - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Checksum

    The simplest checksum algorithm is the so-called longitudinal parity check, which breaks the data into "words" with a fixed number n of bits, and then computes the bitwise exclusive or (XOR) of all those words. The result is appended to the message as an extra word.

  7. Linear-feedback shift register - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear-feedback_shift_register

    There can be more than one maximum-length tap sequence for a given LFSR length. Also, once one maximum-length tap sequence has been found, another automatically follows. If the tap sequence in an n-bit LFSR is [n, A, B, C, 0], where the 0 corresponds to the x 0 = 1 term, then the corresponding "mirror" sequence is [n, n − C, n − B, n − A, 0].

  8. Parity of a permutation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parity_of_a_permutation

    The numbers in the right column are the inversion numbers (sequence A034968 in the OEIS), which have the same parity as the permutation. In mathematics , when X is a finite set with at least two elements, the permutations of X (i.e. the bijective functions from X to X ) fall into two classes of equal size: the even permutations and the odd ...

  9. Blum Blum Shub - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blum_Blum_Shub

    Blum Blum Shub takes the form + =, where M = pq is the product of two large primes p and q.At each step of the algorithm, some output is derived from x n+1; the output is commonly either the bit parity of x n+1 or one or more of the least significant bits of x n+1.
