Let s and k be integers such that s is a divisor of 2k-1. Let g(x) be a divisor of xs-1 over F2 , and let π(x) be a primitive polynomial of degree k over F2. We consider the binary cyclic code C of length N=2k -1 generated by (XN-1)/g(x)π(x). For special cases, we determine the weight distribution of C by using the weights of the cyclic code of length s generated by (xs-1)/g(x)
