Abstract
Let b be a code of length n over a field F , with automorphism group G ; b w denotes the subset of codewords of weight w . The goal is to classify the vectors of F n into orbits under G and to determine their distances from the various subcodes b w. This is done for the first-order Reed-Muller, Nordstrom-Robinson, and Hamming codes of length 16, the Golay and shortened Golay codes of lengths 22, 23, 24, and the ternary Golay code of length 12
