You are encouraged to solve this task according to the task description, using any language you may know.
The Lempel-Ziv-Welch (LZW) algorithm provides lossless data compression.
You can read a complete description of it in the Wikipedia article on the subject. It was patented, but it fell in the public domain in 2004.

here is the interface: <ocaml>val compress : uncompressed:string -> int list val decompress : compressed:int list -> string list</ocaml>
How to use:
The compressed datas are a list of symbols (of type int) that will require more than 8 bits to be saved.
So to know how many bits are required, you need to know how many bits are required for the greatest symbol in the list.
<ocaml>let greatest = List.fold_left (fun m x -> max m x) 0 ;;
(** number of bits needed to encode the integer m *) let n_bits m =
let m = float m in let rec aux n = let max = (2. ** n) -. 1. in if max >= m then int_of_float n else aux (n +. 1.0) in aux 1.0
let write_compressed ~filename ~compressed =
let nbits = n_bits(greatest compressed) in let oc = open_out filename in output_byte oc nbits; let ob = IO.output_bits(IO.output_channel oc) in List.iter (fun code -> IO.write_bits ob nbits code ) compressed; IO.flush_bits ob; close_out oc;
let read_compressed ~filename =
let ic = open_in filename in let nbits = input_byte ic in let ib = IO.input_bits(IO.input_channel ic) in let rec loop acc = try let code = IO.read_bits ib nbits in loop (code::acc) with _ -> List.rev acc in let compressed = loop [] in let result = decompress ~compressed in let buf = Buffer.create 2048 in List.iter (Buffer.add_string buf) result; (Buffer.contents buf)
- </ocaml>
Python
<python>def compress(uncompressed):
"""Compress a string to a list of output symbols.""" # Build the dictionary. dict_size = 256 dictionary = {} for i in range(dict_size): dictionary[chr(i)] = chr(i) w = result = [] for c in uncompressed: wc = w + c if wc in dictionary: w = wc else: result.append(dictionary[w]) # Add wc to the dictionary. dictionary[wc] = dict_size dict_size += 1 w = c # Output the code for w. if w: result += [char for char in w] return result
def decompress(compressed):
"""Decompress a list of output ks to a string.""" # Build the dictionary. dict_size = 256 dictionary = {} for i in range(dict_size): dictionary[chr(i)] = chr(i) w = result = compressed.pop(0) for k in compressed: if k in dictionary: entry = dictionary[k] elif k == len(dictionary): entry = w + w[0] else: raise ValueError, 'Bad compressed k: %s' % k result += entry # Add w+entry[0] to the dictionary. dictionary[dict_size] = w+entry[0] dict_size += 1 w = entry return result</python>
How to use:
<python>compressed = compress('TOBEORNOTTOBEORTOBEORNOT') print compressed decompressed = decompress(compressed) print decompressed</python>
