    Abstract: The Hoffman’s algorithm to test equivalency of linear codes is one of the techniques that have been used over the years; it is achieved by a comparison of codewords of the linear codes. However, this comparison technique becomes ineffective in instances where it is applied to linear codes with larger dimensions as it requires much run time complexi... Show More
