Default Issues with my 2001 Chevy Impala 3.4L

I just bought my 2001 Chevy Impala from a used car dealership on Wednesday. The check engine light and the abs light is on. Yesterday, me and my dad went to autozone to get a diagnostic test to see what is wrong. It turns out that I have 11 codes. c1221, c1225, c1232, c1236, c1245, c1248, c1254, p0102 and p0463. Does anyone know what these mean? And if you do, how much do you think it will cost to get these fixed.

clear all codes in powertrain and chassis. drive the car until the cel or ABS lights set a code. Get the codes checked in powertrain and chassis systems. Post the codes that reset.

you don't know what codes are hard codes or what may have been set by someone doing diagnostics; so clear them all out and start from scratch.
