Overview of various encoding techniques, focusing on transforming information into symbolic representations like Morse code, fixed-length, and variable-length codes. It also discusses the principles of encoding systems used in technology and communication.
The Shannon-Fano method is a basic data compression technique where symbols are arranged by their probability of occurrence. The goal is to assign shorter codes to more frequent symbols, optimizing data encoding efficiency
Explains various methods for encoding integers, focusing on binary representation and how to handle both positive and negative numbers using sign-magnitude and two's complement methods. It includes practical examples, such as converting between decimal and binary systems and performing arithmetic with binary numbers.
