What is the minimum distance of code outlet?

The minimum distance of a code outlet, often referred to in the context of coding theory, is the smallest Hamming distance between any two distinct codeWords in a code. It indicates the error-detecting and error-correcting capabilities of the code: a minimum distance of (d) allows the detection of up to (d-1) errors and correction of up to (\lfloor (d-1)/2 \rfloor) errors. This concept is crucial in designing reliable communication systems.
