Great work.

Seems like a typo when covering inversion. They claim parity(0) = 0 but still use the equation with != from before.

It's nice to see that they, like me, subscribe to "an hour of experimenting can save 5 minutes of reading the documentation." Of course what people often fail to realize is that until you've found the answer, you often don't realize what the documentation was saying, such as the 16-bit thing. Management may ask "was that not in the manual?" But it's more nebulous than that.

I bet you that one hour was full of excitement, where’s the fun in reading the documentation :P

Another great to look at it is possibly as a TDD approach vs analyzing the problem at a deeper level.
