About

The Cyclic Code Encoder is a web application built using Django, a Python web framework.
It provides a simple frontend interface for users to input data and encode it using [n, k]_q cyclic codes using a randomly generated Generator Polynomial.
The backend of the application utilizes Django's redirect view to allow users to redirect to a specified URL by clicking on a "Encode" button.
It serves as a basic example of how to implement Cyclic Code Encoder with a GUI using a web application with Django.

Run

1. Install python3
