Abstract: According to one embodiment is a string processor configured to output a biased output string having a first output value and a second output value. The string processor is given an unbiased input string of at least two input values. The string processor has a processing unit and a memory device, the memory device stores a code-word set. The code-word set has a plurality of code-words, each code-word having at least one input value, and each output value has at least one corresponding code-word. The processing unit is configured to: compare a comparison string to the code-word set, wherein the comparison string includes an input from the input string; and assign an output value to the output string when the comparison string matches a code-word. The assigned output value is that to which the matched code-word corresponds.
