Comment:

 It looks good. I modified the tests that showed failure behaviour under
 too many errors: "too many errors" is of course not well-defined (since
 the receiver doesn't know the sent codeword); the relevant measure is the
 distance to *any* codeword. Your test generated random errors of weight
 `t+1`, where `t` is the decoding radius, and that would still decode into
 some other codeword sometimes (albeit with extremely low probability). I
 now changed it to a fixed example.

 If you can accept this, please set it to positive review.
