|
|
* Provides routines for encoding and decoding the extended Golay
|
|
|
|
* (24,12,8) code.
|
|
|
|
*
|
|
|
|
* This implementation will detect up to 4 errors in a codeword (without
|
|
|
|
* being able to correct them); it will correct up to 3 errors.
|
|
|
|
*
|
|
|
|
* We use guint32s to hold the 24-bit codewords, with the data part in
|
|
|
|
* the bottom 12 bits and the parity in bits 12-23.
