The length function \ℓq(r,R) is the smallest length of a q-ary linear\ncode of codimension (redundancy) r and covering radius R. The d-length\nfunction \ℓq(r,R,d) is the smallest length of a q-ary linear code with\ncodimension r, covering radius R, and minimum distance d. By computer\nsearch in wide regions of q, we obtained following short codes of covering\nradius R=3: [n,n-4,5]q3 quasi-perfect MDS codes, [n,n-5,5]q3\nquasi-perfect Almost MDS codes, and [n,n-5,3]q3 codes. In computer search,\nwe use the step-by-step leximatrix and inverse leximatrix algorithms to obtain\nparity check matrices of codes. The new codes imply the following new upper\nbounds (called lexi-bounds) on the length and d-length functions:\n
