A sender has the following data bits 0xA2C (note: it does NOT contain any check bits). (Note: Number the bit position from left to right, i.e. 1st bit, 2nd bit, ..., 16th bit) [3 marks]

1) What is the data bits in binary? 2)

Determine the check bits and the entire string to be sent out using Hamming Code and even parity.

No steps, no mark.
