The Parity property specifies the method of parity checking to be used. Parity is used as an error checking technique where an extra parity bit is included with every unit of data. If even parity is used, the parity bit is used to make the total count of bits set an even number. The receiver can then verify the validity of the data by counting the bits that are set. Odd parity, sets the parity bit so that the count of bits set is an odd number. Mark parity always leaves the parity bit set to 1, while space parity always leaves the parity bit set to 0.
