Abstract

An algorithm for equivalence of linear codes over finite fields is presented. Its main advantage is that it can extract exactly one representative from each equivalence class among a large number of linear codes. It can also be used as a test for isomorphism of binary matrices. The algorithm is implemented in the program LCequivalence, which is designed to obtain the inequivalent codes in a set of linear codes over a finite field with q<64 elements. This program is a module of the free software package QextNewEdition for constructing, classifying and studying linear codes.
