Abstract
The theory of the representation of information in
binary form such that at the receiving end any
number of errors up to a given level can be
detected and/or corrected without further information
is presented. The paper gives explicit solutions
for the cases of single error detection, single
error correction, and single error correction plus
double error detection. II also indicates the nature
of the general case, and supplies a few relevant
observations on the problem.
