Long code[1,2] 

Description

Locally testable \([2^{2^k},k,d]\) code. The encoder maps a \(k\)-bit string into a codeword that consists of the values of all Boolean functions on the \(k\)-bit string. The code is not practical, but is useful for certain probabilistically checkable proof (PCP) constructions [3].

  • Hadamard code — The Hadamard code is a subcode of the long code and can be obtained by restricting the long-code construction to only linear functions.
