LZW compression algorithm
-
As what I know, we need to create a table for LZW compression. I just don't understand how the program keeps track the TABLE when we compress a file from one machine, then transfer the file to another machine and decompress the file. Is the TABLE transfered with the compressed file? Please help me with this issue. Thank you very much. bettie

Please open this link and read the information. They use the name DICTIONARY instead of TABLE. Thanks! http://www.cs.cf.ac.uk/Dave/Multimedia/node214.html bettie

The dictionary, or table, you're reffering to is written into the .ZIP file. The application that decompresses the file then reads the dictionary table from the file. RageInTheMachine9532 "...a pungent, ghastly, stinky piece of cheese!" -- The Roaming Gnome

Does it mean the table put together with the compressed file when we transfer the file over the network? Thanks! bettie
