Popis: In this article we prove a Griesmer type bound for additive codes over finite fields. This new bound gives an upper bound on the length of maximum distance separable (MDS) codes, codes which attain the Singleton bound. We will also consider codes to be MDS if they obtain the fractional Singleton bound, due to Huffman. We prove that this bound in the fractional case can be obtained by codes whose length surpasses the length of the longest known codes in the non-fractional case. We also provide some exhaustive computational results over small fields and dimensions.
