So how does this relate to Hamming codes? [0] [0] https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=X8jsijhllIA https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=X8jsijhllIA

  Hamming codes were among the first codes invented after Shannon's paper. Hamming codes are very tiny, but efficient. There are bigger (and therefore better) codes today, but hamming codes are still used when small codes are useful (or: error correcting ram) Hamming codes are optimal and efficient for their size. But there is a need for larger codes in most practical situations. If you need single error correcting double error detecting however, Hamming is probably your best bet.
