![**Error-Correcting Code for Memory Words of Length 10**
Suppose we want an error-correcting code that will allow all single-bit errors to be corrected for memory words of length 10.
**a. How many parity bits are necessary?**
---
**b.** Assuming we are using the Hamming algorithm presented in this chapter to design our error-correcting code and an **odd parity**, find the code word to represent the 10-bit information word:
\[ 1 \ 0 \ 0 \ 1 \ 1 \ 0 \ 0 \ 1 \ 1 \ 1 \]
---
**c.** We now receive the following code word:
\[ 1 \ 0 \ 1 \ 0 \ 1 \ 1 \ 0 \ 0 \ 0 \ 0 \ 1 \ 0 \ 1 \ 1 \]
Is this a legal code word, assuming an odd parity? If not, what is the corrected code word? (Which bit is the error bit?)](/v2/_next/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcontent.bartleby.com%2Fqna-images%2Fquestion%2Fc78cb2d6-68a5-41e0-b558-8f8bf6426ef5%2F95107b7a-4499-4571-b3fd-2ad08b0df392%2Fixt51pv_processed.png&w=3840&q=75)
