) COMPRESSION using huffman code
-with a number of bits k per code word
-provide huffman table
Huffman coding is optimal for a symbol-by-symbol coding with a known input probability distribution.This technique uses a variable-length code table for encoding a source symbol. The table is derived in a particular way based on the estimated probability of occurrence for each possible value of the source symbol .Huffman coding uses a specific method for representing each symbol, resulting in a prefix code that expresses the most common characters using shorter strings of bits than those used for less common source symbols.The Huffman coding is a procedure to generate a binary code tree.
