Keep in mind that Hamming's mechanism (algorithm) requires the original input data to be 7 bits long, to calculate 4 checkbits, and to 'merge' the data and checkbits together to form a total of 11 output bits. From our Resources page [CITS3002]⬈ you can download the simple program demonstrated in Lecture-2, compile it (the command is provided as a comment in the code), and then compare its reported result with your manually calculated result. Hope that helps,
