Challenge Problems

Push your limits with advanced challenges

Challenge 1 Hard

Design a Hamming Code for a 5-bit data message and determine the positions of parity bits needed for error correction.

💡 Hint: Use the formula 2^n - 1 >= m + n.

Challenge 2 Hard

Analyze a transmission of Hamming Code like 1100101, where the first parity check indicates an error. Simulate how to locate and correct the error.

💡 Hint: Calculate affected parity bits to deduce the erroneous position.
