Review text

The author establishes a connection between weight enumerator polynomials of codes and modular forms based on the observation that the MacWilliams identity for the doubly-even self-dual code \(C\) is just the inversion formula of the theta function of the associated even unimodular lattice \(\Gamma_C\). Those not familiar with the subject can find a detailed introduction in, for example, Chapter 3 of [\textit{W. Ebeling}, Lattices and codes, 2nd ed. (Vieweg; Wiesbaden) (2002; Zbl 1030.11030)].
