Grep of noun parity conservation of parity disparity parity parity bit parity check Overview of noun parity The noun parity has 5 senses (no senses from tagged texts) 1. parity, para -- ((obstetrics) the number of live-born children a woman has delivered; "the parity of the mother must be considered"; "a bipara is a woman who has given birth to two children") 2. parity -- ((mathematics) a relation between a pair of integers: if both integers are odd or both are even they have the same parity; if one is odd and the other is even they have different parity) 3. parity bit, parity -- ((computer science) an error detection procedure in which a bit (0 or 1) added to each group of bits so that it will have either an odd number of 1's or an even number of 1's; e.g., if the parity is odd then any group of bits that arrives with an even number of 1's must contain an error) 4. parity, conservation of parity, space-reflection symmetry, mirror symmetry -- ((physics) parity is conserved in a universe in which the laws of physics are the same in a right-handed system of coordinates as in a left-handed system) 5. parity -- (functional equality) Overview of noun parity The noun parity has 5 senses (no senses from tagged texts) 1. parity, para -- ((obstetrics) the number of live-born children a woman has delivered; "the parity of the mother must be considered"; "a bipara is a woman who has given birth to two children") 2. parity -- ((mathematics) a relation between a pair of integers: if both integers are odd or both are even they have the same parity; if one is odd and the other is even they have different parity) 3. parity bit, parity -- ((computer science) an error detection procedure in which a bit (0 or 1) added to each group of bits so that it will have either an odd number of 1's or an even number of 1's; e.g., if the parity is odd then any group of bits that arrives with an even number of 1's must contain an error) 4. parity, conservation of parity, space-reflection symmetry, mirror symmetry -- ((physics) parity is conserved in a universe in which the laws of physics are the same in a right-handed system of coordinates as in a left-handed system) 5. parity -- (functional equality)
