So I want to work on this summer project to correct errors in a message transmission using Hamming Code, but I cannot figure out how it really works.  I've read many articles online, but I don't really understand the algorithm.  Can anybody explain it in simple terms?
Thanks.

            I have a huge dataset with words word_i and weights weight[i,j], 
where weight is the "connection strength" between words.
I'd like to binarize this data, but I want to know if there is any existing algorithm to make binary code of each word in such a way that the Hamming distance between the codes of the words correlates with this weig...
            
           
          
            
            Hello All
Can I just say from the outset that this isn't a homework question as I'm way to 
old for that. But is related to an open source radio decoder project I'm working on ..
http://github.com/IanWraith/DMRDecode
Part of the radio protocol I'm interested uses a Hamming (7,4,3) code to protect
4 bits in a particular part of a data ...
