✦ Synopsis
We describe a code lengthening technique that uses unequal error protection codes as su$x codes and combine it with iteration of the conventional Construction X. By applying this technique to BCH codes, we obtain "ve new binary codes, 13 new ternary codes, and 13 new quarternary codes. An improvement of Construction XX yields two new ternary codes.

We derive new estimates for the error term in the binomial approximation to the distance distribution of extended Goppa codes. This is an improvement on the earlier bounds by Vladuts and Skorobogatov, and Levy and Litsyn.
