Abstract
A method of encoding first and second symbols each having n binary bits into first and second code words each having n-1 ternary trits is disclosed. The method involves using a preselected bit from each of the first and second symbols to determine which one of at least two groups of code words comprising n-1 trits is used for encoding. An analogous method of decoding is also disclosed. Apparatus for performing the encoding and decoding is disclosed.
