In the Hamming SEC code, the error check finds that parity bits 1 and 8 are not correct. Using the bit numbering for the encoding, identify the bit position that is in error.

a) 9

b) 1

c) 8

d) 0

Solution

Add error check parity bits=(1+8)=9

so bit number 9 for the encoding is in error.

hence option A is the answer
