About this book :-
Codes: an Introduction to Information Communication & Cryptography
Norman L. Biggs.
This book is an integrated introduction to Coding. By this I mean replacing symbolic information, such as a sequence of bits or a message written in a natural language, by another message using (possibly) different symbols. There are three main reasons for doing this: Economy (data compression), Reliability (correction of errors), and Security (cryptography).
The author has tried to cover each of these three areas in sufficient depth so that the reader can grasp the basic problems and go on to more advanced study. The mathematical theory is introduced in a way that enables the basic problems to be stated carefully, but without unnecessary abstraction. The prerequisites (sets and functions, matrices, finite probability) should be familiar to anyone who has taken a standard course in mathematical methods or discrete mathematics. A course in elementary abstract algebra and/or number theory would be helpful, but the book contains the essential facts, and readers without this background should be able to understand what is going on.
