Huffman Coding Algorithm

Introduction

// TODO

Compress/decompress text files using Huffman's coding.

Compiling

Assuming you have installed Maven, Java SE 13 and Git, we can follow these steps:

1. Download the project and moves into the root directory

   git clone https://github.com/imns1ght/huffman && cd huffman/
   

2. Compile and create .jar

   mvn package
   

   After that, the library huffman.jar it's located in target/.

3. Create a symlink (shortcut) for the executable.

   ln -sf target/huffman.jar .
   

Usage

Assuming $ is the terminal prompt, you can use:

java -jar huffman.jar compress input.txt compressed.edz table.edt

java -jar huffman.jar extract compressed.edz table.edt output.txt

Running tests

Just run as usual (assuming $ is the terminal prompt):

./fastrun.sh
