A quadratic residue code is a type of cyclic code.
Examples of quadratic residue codes include the (7,4){\displaystyle (7,4)} Hamming code over GF(2){\displaystyle GF(2)}, the (23,12){\displaystyle (23,12)} binary Golay code over GF(2){\displaystyle GF(2)} and the (11,6){\displaystyle (11,6)} ternary Golay code over GF(3){\displaystyle GF(3)}.
