Abstract

Systems, methods, and other embodiments associated with an encoder. In one embodiment, a system includes an encoder having a code word generator and an appending logic. The code word generator is configured to generate code words based on input data and identify one or more short code words. A short code word has a length less than a length of a full code word. The appending logic is configured to append at least one dummy value to at least one of the short code words to convert the at least one short code word to a full code word. The encoder may further be configured to encode the converted full code word and store the converted full code word without the at least one dummy value in a storage medium.
