Assignment 37

Error correcting codes were rather hard for me to understand.  It makes sense why we need them, but how they work in practice did not make sense to me.  I don't understand how the error detecting and correcting algorithms work.

It was interesting to see how necessary these codes are.  I had never thought about the dangers of a noisy channel, but it makes sense that such error correcting codes would be needed in order to ensure clear communication.
