Aware of how a 1-bit flip can be fixed for 3-qubit input by having 2 Ancilla bits, encoding, and using the Toffoli gate to fix the error and decode. How can this idea be extended for a 2-bit flip (either 2 of the 3 qubit-inputs) and what does the circuit look like?

I was able to figure it out now via taking 3 ancilla qubits instead of 2 and figuring out the invariant in case 2 bits are flipped.
