How To Design Programs An Introduction To Programming and Computing (M. Felleisen, et al)
The main focus of this book is the design process that leads from problem statements to well-organized solutions; it deemphasizes the study of programming language details, algorithmic minutiae, and specific application domains. It covers the following topics: Processing Simple Forms of Data, Processing Arbitrarily Large Data, Abstracting Designs, Generative Recursion, Accumulating Knowledge, Changing the State of Variables, Changing Compound Values.

Notes on Coding Theory by J.I.Hall
This comprehensive note considers some basic material in coding theory and discusses sphere packing and Shannon's theorem, which form the basics to understanding the idea of error correction and data transmission. It also deals with the concept of linear codes and their applications by describing Hamming codes and generalized Reed-Solomon codes. The material further takes a look at some codes within the frameworks of modifiation of codes and codes over subfields, providing insights into cyclic codes. Furthermore, it addresses the importance of countering weights and distances in error-correcting codes, thus making it a very vital text for students and professionals looking to deepen their knowledge on mathematical underpinnings and practical applications of coding theory.

Coding Theory and Applications
This book is meant for undergraduate students who wish to obtain a basic knowledge in coding theory based on the subject of linear codes. It begins with introductory chapters based on Shannon theory and relevant to coding, then advances to detailed discussions about decoding linear codes and the MacWilliams identity. Besides these, the construction of new codes and the attainment of bounds on code performance are subjects of discussion, and thus Reed-Muller codes prove very significant in this light. This book is an exposition of the practical coding theory applied in many fields: telecommunications to data storage. It focuses on fast decoding techniques and higher-order RM codes.
