Abstract: Lossless data compression is necessary to reduce transmission costs while maintaining data integrity. This paper describes Kompressor as a Huffman and Lempel Ziv (LZ) compression algorithm ...

This repository provides an implementation of a compression algorithm of this type, the Huffman algorithm. This algorithm is implemented in the Python programming language.

ASCII files can be compressed to smaller sizes by using variable length Huffman Coding. By analyzing the different probabilities of the various symbols that occur in a given file, we can build a ...
