Parity/Non-parity Check
Beginning of paper
Early transmission codes had a serious problem in that a bit could be lost
or gained in transmission because of an electrical or mechanical failure/
If the loss went undetected, the character received on the other end of the
lime was incorrect.
To Prevent this from happening, a parity check sy ....
Middle of paper
.... bits received in a code string
composed of even bits will signal an error.
Odd Parity codes add a check bit to code combinations that have an
even number of 1 bits. Thus,all characters transmitted have an odd number
of bits. Odd and even parity care similar in nature. They are both designed
to signal an error in the even that data are lost or added.
