Parity Bit Generator

Generate parity bits (even/odd) for a binary string.

Example: 1011

Definition: Computes the parity bit for the given binary input (even or odd) and returns the augmented string or the parity bit.

Conversion formula

Parity bit (even/odd):
Parity = XOR of all data bits. For even parity choose bit so total number of 1s is even.

Example: data 1011 has three 1s. Even parity bit = 1 (makes total 4).
