Abstract
In this paper, for an even integer n ≥ 4 and any positive integer k with gcd(n/2,k) = gcd(n/2 − k,2k) = d being odd, a class of p-ary codes \(\mathcal{C}^k\) is defined and the weight distribution is completely determined, where p is an odd prime. A class of nonbinary sequence families is constructed from these codes, and the correlation distribution is also determined.
