Hamming Code Calculator

Step 1: After receiving the codeword, the receiver calculates the parity checks for each parity bit position (p1, p2, p4, etc.) using the same method as encoding.

Step 2: If any of the parity checks yield a non-zero result, it indicates an error in the transmitted codeword. The binary result of all parity checks is used to locate the position of the error.

• If the result is zero, no error is detected.
• If the result is non-zero, the error is at the position indicated by the binary result of the parity checks.

Step 3: Once the error position is identified, the receiver can flip the corresponding bit in the received codeword to correct the error.
