Everything about RAM parity
Early computer error-detection technique
RAM parity checking is the storing of a redundant parity bit representing the parity of a small amount of computer data stored in random-access memory, and the subsequent comparison of the stored and the computed parity to detect whether a data error has occurred. Wikipedia →
