Volume 32 • Number 2 • 2009   • On Perfect-Like Binary and Non-Binary Linear Codes - A Brief Survey Bal Kishan Dass and Pankaj Kumar Das Abstract. This work presents a brief survey on codes (with respect to Hamming metric) which are perfect-like i.e. codes which are capable to correct a given set of error vectors and no others. Several kinds of such codes which exist in the literature have been discussed and possibilities of the existence of such codes in some cases have been explored. 2000 Mathematics Subject Classification: 94B25, 94B60, 94-02.
