  • Abstract
    A new approach to investigating the Mastermind game and related problems, among them uniquely decodable codes for noiseless adder channel, based on ideas and methods of coding theory is proposed. This approach leads to improved bounds in various problems associated with the rigidity of Hamming spaces
