Programming Fundamentals by Kenneth Leroy Busbee
Kenneth Leroy Busbee and Dave Braunschweig's Programming Fundamentals is a book that offered readers a more solid foundation in programming concepts. The text covers the basic elements of programming systems: from data types to the operators and the functions, to control structures including the conditions and the loops, advanced elements such as arrays and strings processing files among others. The book focuses on object-oriented programming and brings out classes and objects. This material is widely used by students looking to develop a solid foundation of programming principles and practices-a growing emphasis on practical application and theoretical knowledge.

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.
