A book in coding theory.

Solution 1:

Books

Peruse them online and see if they agree with you, they are not in any particular order and I may have missed a couple.

  • A First Course in Coding Theory by Raymond Hill
  • Information and Coding Theory by Gareth A. Jones and J.Mary Jones
  • Introduction to Coding and Information Theory by Steven Roman
  • Introduction to Coding Theory by Ron Roth
  • Introduction to Coding Theory by Juergen Bierbrauer
  • Coding Theory: A First Course by San Ling and Chaoping Xing
  • Introduction to Coding Theory by Van Lint, J. H.
  • Coding Theory and Cryptography: The Essentials, Second Edition by D.C. Hankerson, Gary Hoffman, D.A. Leonard and Charles C. Lindner

Note: there are also graduate level books in this area.

Another nice resource which IIRC has a decent amount of coding theory is the excellent Information Theory, Inference, and Learning Algorithms by David MacKay. It's a published book but it is also available online at http://www.inference.phy.cam.ac.uk/itila/book.html
