Abstract
The many codes included in this chapter have a common feature; thet are robust. Any errors that creep into a string of such codewords can either be detected (or even corrected automatically) or have only limited effects and do not propagate indefinitely. The chapter starts with a discussion of the principles of error-control codes.
