Why is a generator matrix multiplied from the right, not from the left, as would be standard for linear mappings?
In coding theory, there exist linear codes, whose code words are generated using a generator matrix. This encoding is done by multiplying the input vector s (aka. information word) from the right with the generator matrix G to obtain the code word…
