Abstract
The paper considers additive representation of the number of linear codes. The summands of the representation are numbers of linear codes of weight 1, 2, ... . Formulae for calculating the summands with respect to weight 1 and weight 2 are stated. The contribution of the summands mentioned to the whole sum is estimated. The property of strong logarithmic concavity of the number of linear codes of minimal weight is established.
