iii) up to 3 errors in any codeword.
2) (a) Recall that F = F3[x]/ < x2 + 1 > is a finite field of order 32. Find a primitive element and write out the cyclotomic cosets along with their minimal polynomials.
(b) Use F to construct a BCH code C of length n = 8 and design distance 5. Give a generator polynomial and generator matrix for C. What is the dimension of C?

Problem regarding the advertised proportions
: a) If the M&M's are packaged in the advertised proportions, how many of each color should the author have ex- pected in his bag of M&M's? b) To see if his bag was unusual, should he test goodness- of-fit, homogeneity, or independence?

Determining the degrees of freedom
: To see if these results are unusual, will you test goodness- of-fit, homogeneity, or independence? State your hypotheses. Check the conditions. How many degrees of freedom are there?
