In odd parity, how is the parity bit determined?
The parity bit is always 1.
The parity bit is always 0.
The parity bit is set to ensure the total number of 1s, including the parity bit, is odd.
The parity bit is set randomly.
Explication
In odd parity, the parity bit is set to make the total number of 1s (including the parity bit) odd.
