  2. Transcription error - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transcription_error

    Unfortunately, this situation is likely to get worse before it gets better, as workload for users and workers using manual direct data entry (DDE) devices increases. Double entry (or more) may also be leveraged to minimize transcription or transposition error, but at the cost of a reduced number of entries per unit time.

  3. Error correction code - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Error_correction_code

    If the number of errors within a code word exceeds the error-correcting code's capability, it fails to recover the original code word. Interleaving alleviates this problem by shuffling source symbols across several code words, thereby creating a more uniform distribution of errors. [ 21 ]

  4. Error detection and correction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Error_detection_and_correction

    The on-line textbook: Information Theory, Inference, and Learning Algorithms, by David J.C. MacKay, contains chapters on elementary error-correcting codes; on the theoretical limits of error-correction; and on the latest state-of-the-art error-correcting codes, including low-density parity-check codes, turbo codes, and fountain codes.

  5. Hamming code - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hamming_code

    A two-out-of-five code is an encoding scheme which uses five bits consisting of exactly three 0s and two 1s. This provides () = possible combinations, enough to represent the digits 0–9.

  6. Burst error-correcting code - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Burst_error-correcting_code

    Proof. We need to prove that if you add a burst of length to a codeword (i.e. to a polynomial that is divisible by ()), then the result is not going to be a codeword (i.e. the corresponding polynomial is not divisible by ()).

  7. Typographical error - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Typographical_error

    The Wicked Bible The Judas Bible in St. Mary's Church, Totnes, Devon, UK. The Wicked Bible omits the word "not" in the commandment, "thou shalt not commit adultery".. The Judas Bible is a copy of the second folio edition of the authorized version, printed by Robert Barker, printer to James VI and I, in 1613, and given to the church for the use of the Mayor of Totnes.

  8. Sic - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sic

    Some guides, including The Chicago Manual of Style, recommend "quiet copy-editing" (unless where inappropriate or uncertain) instead of inserting a bracketed sic, such as by substituting in brackets the correct word in place of the incorrect word or by simply replacing an incorrect spelling with the correct one.

  9. Autocorrection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Autocorrection

    Autocorrect in Windows 10, correcting the word "mispelled" to "misspelled". Autocorrection , also known as text replacement , replace-as-you-type , text expander or simply autocorrect , is an automatic data validation function commonly found in word processors and text editing interfaces for smartphones and tablet computers .
