m The set of possible errors in a binary code is not strictly smaller than \abs{C}, consider e.g. the repetition code. The lookup table only becomes smaller compared to the full standard array of the code.
adding list decoding, an important class of decoding algorithms, though my formatting is probably bad.
Line 132:
 
The number of entries in the two lookup tables is <math>2^k+2^{n-k}</math>, which is significantly smaller than <math>2^n</math> required for [[standard array|standard array decoding]] that requires only <math>1</math> lookup. Additionally, the precomputed encoding lookup table can be used for the encoding, and is thus often useful to have.
