A parity bit is simple way of detecting transmission errors.
4-
The transmitters and receives can only transmit and receive *exactly* eight bits at a time (including the parity bit).
5-
The parity bit is set so that there is an *even* number 1s in each transmission and is always the first bit from the right.
6-
So if the receiver receives `11000001`, `01110101` or `01000000` (i.e. a transmission with an odd number of 1 bits), it knows there is an error.

Their parity bits are set to 1 so that they have an even number of 1 bits in the transmission.
