A bit, added to every 8 bits, as a basic data integrity check. The value of this 9th. bit is either chosen so that the total number of 1's is even (even parity) or odd (odd parity).

State the purpose of the parity track devices?

A parity bit, or check bit, is a bit that is added to ensure that the number of bits with the value one in a set of bits is even or odd. Parity bits are used as the simplest form of error detecting code.

What is called if the number of bits is not an odd number for odd parity or an even number for even parity?

That's called a "parity violation", which indicates a bit error in the byte. That's the whole purpose of parity ... detecting bit errors, although in order to do it, you have to significantly increase the data load by adding an extra bit to every 7 or 8 bits in the end-user's business traffic.

How explain the terms even parity and odd parity Is one method bettrer than the other?

"Parity" refers to the number of 1s in a given binary number. Odd parity means there are an odd number of 1s and even parity means that there are an even number of 1s. Parity bits are often used as a crude means of error detection as digital data is transmitted and received. For example, 0b11010100 has 4 1s in it, therefore, it has even parity. Two devices exchanging data must be set to the same parity. If both are set (strapped) for odd parity, for example, then the sending device must ensure that the number of bits in each word has an odd number of 1s. Likewise, the receiving device must be set to ensure it only receives words with an odd number of 1s. An odd parity bit is defined as a bit in the word which can be set to ensure odd parity. If the word already has an odd number of 1s, then the parity bit is not set. If the word otherwise has an even number of 1s, the parity bit is set to ensure an odd number of 1s. The same is true for even parity settings. One way is not necessarily better than the other in theory but, in practice, should observe the convention for the system in question. Many (if not most) devices provide a connector pin that can be strapped to define either even or odd parity.
