  2. Checksum - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Checksum

    This is especially true of cryptographic hash functions, which may be used to detect many data corruption errors and verify overall data integrity; if the computed checksum for the current data input matches the stored value of a previously computed checksum, there is a very high probability the data has not been accidentally altered or corrupted.

  3. Data corruption - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_corruption

    Data scrubbing is another method to reduce the likelihood of data corruption, as disk errors are caught and recovered from before multiple errors accumulate and overwhelm the number of parity bits. Instead of parity being checked on each read, the parity is checked during a regular scan of the disk, often done as a low priority background process.

    Bank of San Serriffe reward check. Knuth started rewarding people for discovering errors in his books after he published the first volume of The Art of Computer Programming in 1968. [2] Initially, Knuth sent real, negotiable checks to recipients. He stopped doing so in October 2008 because of problems with check fraud.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Torrent_file

    In the BitTorrent file distribution system, a torrent file or meta-info file is a computer file that contains metadata about files and folders to be distributed, and usually also a list of the network locations of trackers, which are computers that help participants in the system find each other and form efficient distribution groups called swarms. [1]

  6. Error correction code - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Error_correction_code

    Low-density parity-check (LDPC) codes are a class of highly efficient linear block codes made from many single parity check (SPC) codes. They can provide performance very close to the channel capacity (the theoretical maximum) using an iterated soft-decision decoding approach, at linear time complexity in terms of their block length.

    One 64 GiB DDR5-4800 ECC 1.1 V RDIMM. Registered, or buffered, memory is not the same as ECC; the technologies perform different functions. It is usual for memory used in servers to be both registered, to allow many memory modules to be used without electrical problems, and ECC, for data integrity.

  9. Error treatment (linguistics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Error_treatment_(linguistics)

    In correcting errors, correction is a post-production exercise and basically deals with the linguistic errors. [3] Often in the form of feedback, it draws learners' attention to the mistakes they have made and acts as a reminder of the correct form of language.
