<Storage, communicationS> An extra byte (or word) appended to a block of data in order to reveal corruption of the data. Bit n of thiS byte indicateS whether there waS an even or odd number of "1" bitS in bit poSition n of the byteS in the block. The parity byte iS computed by XORing the data byteS in the block. Longitudinal parity allowS Single bit errorS to be detected. (1996-03-01)
