Talk:Huffman coding

Umm... this is all wrong. Read the Wikipedia article. According to your scheme Huffman codewords would all be of the form 111...10 or 111...1, but that is not at all the case. --76.167.241.45 03:59, 26 March 2009 (UTC)

Yep. It is not Huffman coding. (Hmm, I do like the wikipedia description of the two queue method though ...) --Paddy3118 06:56, 26 March 2009 (UTC)

I did it based on what I learned in class today. If you look at the "Basic technique" section on the WP it shows codes identical to ones I used in the example so I'm pretty sure it is Huffman coding. There must be a few ways to generate them that give different actual codes with the same idea. --Mwn3d 13:44, 26 March 2009 (UTC)
