Let [Formula: see text] be the ring [Formula: see text]. We study cyclic codes of arbitrary length [Formula: see text] over the ring [Formula: see text] and obtain a complete characterization for them by presenting a unique set of generators for these codes. For example, we try to determine all distinct cyclic codes of length [Formula: see text] over the ring [Formula: see text] by a practical algorithm.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
