Coding theory is a branch of mathematics and computer science dealing with the error-prone process of transmitting data across noisy channels, via clever means, so that a large number of errors that occur can be corrected. It also deals with the properties of codes, and thus with their fitness for a specific application.

There are two classes of codes.

  1. Source coding (Entropy encoding)
  2. Channel coding (Forward_error_correction)

@brightwhite in theory i should probably fix it if it looks like an error... but it'd involve a lot of bizarre coding to make it work!

@mackenab I thought you were teaching them coding theory? Shouldn't this help them write better code?

@bleepbleep I can't think of any - I think web tutorials are probably better. Most coding books have the theory for sliding doors images.

There is a complete dearth of Coding Theory-related tweets so far. Was it that bad or that good?
