i believe that this website has very useful information about what
we had discussed in class. since we had learned about bits, bytes,
and parity bit, i found that this website provides additional
information and examples to help me understand the subject better.
under search, i also discovered that this site also provide
information about ASCII, binary coded, integer, and extended ASCII
which may be useful for students to as the class progess. |
| Website explain the importance of parity bit, also explains how it works and gives examples for easier understanding. It is a very helpful site to understand the topic |
| This website is very helpful to help understand parity bits. PLease chck this site out and it was very helpful to understanding even and odd parities |
| I specially like the usage part of this wiki because it talks about how we use parities not only to detect errors but how they correct the errors and "re-fetch" files. |

| Correcting Errors : The
topic discussed on the Correcting Errors website is parity. It
explains the function of a parity bit, which is to detect errors
when they are received. The two types are the odd parity and even
parity. You can have which, ever type of parity just as long as it
has been agreed upon. An example was shown to demonstrate the
difference between an odd and even parity. It explains how you are
suppose to give the parity-bit the value to make it even or odd.
This is not the only way of detecting errors but the author believes
it is certainly the “simplest”.
I think that this website did a good job in explaining a parity. The
article was very clear and to the point, similar to the lectures in
class. I reviewed several sites before I made a choice. Many of them
were not clear to me so my choice was obvious. |

Site: Digital Data:
http://www.jegsworks.com/Lessons/lesson4-2.htm |
| This was a very basic website which consists of what exactly
bits and bytes are. This includes an explanation of the parity bit.
In addition, it defines the digital codes that we went over in the
class lecture: ASCII, EBCDIC, and Unicode. I would have liked for
the website to have gone more in depth, yet it does have many links
to connect you to related information like character codes. |

| This website contains alot of information about parities and how it works through the system. It is a useful website for students who are taking CIS classes and need a further explanation of parities and other information of bits anad bytes. Mr. Price also gives graphs of parities and bits and bytes. For students that are CIS majors, this would be a site that I would recommend because it explains how it works and also gives abbreviations of symbols that are used throughout this course.
Mr. Price also gives other links at the bottom and the top of his webpage for more information on parities. The website basically breakdowns the information into a simple way to which college students can understand the information that he gives us. Also throws in questions that will help the reader understand parities. Everything that a person needs to see is in the front page of the website.
