Line 80: {{main\|Error detection and correction}} The purpose of channel coding theory is to find codes which transmit quickly, contain many valid [[code word]]s and can correct or at least [[error detection\|detect]] many errors. While not mutually exclusive, performance in these areas is a trade -off. So, different codes are optimal for different applications. The needed properties of this code mainly depend on the probability of errors happening during transmission. In a typical CD, the impairment is mainly dust or scratches. CDs use [[cross-interleaved Reed–Solomon coding]] to spread the data out over the disk.<ref>
