Abstract
In this chapter, classification of several main classes of codes are considered: unrestricted error-correcting and covering codes in Sects. 7.1 and 7.2, respectively, and error-correcting linear codes in Sect. 7.3. Various subclasses of these codes are also discussed, including equidistant codes and constant weight codes.
