Exercise 1: Calculate the Checksum

Suppose the data to be transmitted consists of 3 binary 8-bit blocks as follows:


1. 11010101

2. 10101010

3. 11110000

Calculate the checksum for this data. Then, write the complete data sequence, including the
checksum, to be sent.

Exercise 2: Verify Received Data


Suppose you receive a data sequence consisting of 4 binary 8-bit blocks, with the last block
being the checksum:
 11010101

 10101010

 11110000

 01101011 (checksum)

Check if this data contains any errors.

Exercise 3: Write a Checksum Calculation Program


Write a program in Python or Java to perform the following tasks:
1. Receive a sequence of binary 8-bit blocks from the user.
2. Calculate the checksum of this sequence and display the result.
3. Accept the data sequence again (including the checksum) from the user and check if it
contains any errors.

Exercise 4: Detect Transmission Errors


Suppose the initial data sequence is 10101010, 11001100, 11110000, and the checksum is
00000111. During transmission, the received data is corrupted and becomes:
 10101010

 11001100

 11110011

 00000111

Check and indicate if any errors occurred.

Exercise 5: Discuss Checksum Limitations


Describe a scenario in which a checksum fails to detect an error during data transmission.
Provide an example where two-bit errors in the data cause the sum to remain unchanged,
resulting in the data being considered correct.

Exercise 6: Calculate Checksum with 16-bit Data


Suppose the data to be transmitted consists of three 16-bit blocks as follows:
1. 1010101010101010

2. 1100110011001100

3. 1111000011110000

Calculate the 16-bit checksum and append it to the end of this data sequence.

Exercise 7: Detect Errors in Modified Data


The initial data consists of two 8-bit blocks:
 11010110

 00111001

The checksum is calculated and added at the end of the sequence. Suppose that during
transmission, one bit in the first block flips from 11010110 to 11011110. Check and identify
this error by recalculating the checksum.
