Error-correcting codes have been incorporated in numerous working communication and memory systems. This book covers the mathematical aspects of the theory of block error-correcting codes together, in mutual reinforcement, with computational discussions, implementations and examples of all relevant concepts, functions and algorithms. This combined approach facilitates the reading and understanding of the subject.
The digital companion of the book is a non-printable .pdf document with hyperlinks. The examples included in the book can be run with just a mouse click and modified and saved?by users for their own purpose.

From the reviews:
Xamb?-Descamps? offers a well-written work treating basic ideas and computational practice of error-correcting codes. These codes are ubiquitous in current technology--from bar codes and ISBN numbers to the storage and retrieval of data on space stations and DVDs. Chapters discuss background material on finite fields, cyclic codes, and alternant codes; many important classes of codes are described. Emphasis throughout is on efficient coding and decoding rather than general thl³n
