A PASM and TASM encoding method is provided comprising the steps of storing a block of a data-bit sequence in a memory, calculating parity-check symbols, and outputting an encoded data bit sequence. The PASM encoding method includes calculating a first set of parity-check symbols from the data-bit sequence along a first set of parity lines, and calculating at least a second set of parity-check symbols from the data symbols and parity-check symbols along a second set of parity lines, wherein each parity line of the second set of parity lines has a path traversing through the parity-check symbols. The TASM encoding method includes calculating a first parity-check symbol from data symbols and parity-check symbols along a first parity line having a first slope and calculating at least a second parity-check symbol from data symbols and parity-check symbols along a second parity line having a second slope, wherein the second parity line traverses through the first parity-check symbol.

A Schilling-Manela encoding method is provided comprising the steps of storing a block of a data-bit sequence in a memory, calculating parity-check symbols from parity-line symbols having p-bits per symbol along parity lines, and setting the parity-check symbols equal to the modulo-2.sup.p sum of the parity-line symbols. A Schilling-Manela decoding method is provided comprising the steps of storing an encoded data-bit sequence in a memory. The encoded-data-bit sequence includes a parity-check-symbol sequence which is stored in parity-memory cells, and a data-bit sequence which is blocked and stored in information-memory cells. The parity-check symbols and the parity-line symbols along the parity lines in the information-memory cells are found. The count of each composite cell on a composite-error graph traversed by the path of each of the parity lines having an error is incremented and the largest-number cell in the composite-error graph having the largest number is determined. The largest number is compared to a threshold, and a new data symbol is chosen to minimize the count in the largest-number cell and substituted into the stored data-bit sequence.
