Abstract
In [1] a new family of error detection codes called weighted sum codes was proposed, In this comment it is noted, that these codes are equiv alent to lengthened Reed Solomon codes, resp, shortened version of len gthened Reed Solomon codes over GF(2((h/2))). It is also shown, that i t is possible to use these codes for error correction of one error in the code word over GP(2((h/2))).
