Implementing Codes

Finally, the end result of having classes defining the linear codes, the field elements used in those codes, and the data storage elements, is that we can have an applet that encodes webpages. As in the ShowCodesApplet, the code selections are on the left-top and the code options are on the right-top. The text field below the code check boxes is where the url for the to-be-encoded-webpage can be entered. Make sure to include "http://" before the web address. When the "go" button is pushed, the encoded form of the webpage will appear on the left-bottom and the unencoded form on the right-bottom. The encoded bytes from the webpage are displayed as "plain text bits: code bits".
