I have some ideas I would like to experiment with relating to data compression, but am finding it difficult to decipher some parts of how the standard are applied "in real life". I would like to look at some sample compressed files to observe how the the blocks are arranged and the huffman tree(s) are structured.
Are there any tools in...
A JPEG image, if it is non-progrssive loads from top-to-bottom, and not from left-to-right or any other manner.
Doesn't that imply that jpeg uses some row-wise compression technique? Does it (use a row-wise compression technique)?

Given a gzip file Z, if I decompress it to Z', is there any way I can recompress it to get the exact same gzip file Z back? After a cursory reading of the DEFLATE format, I am guessing no, as any given file may have multiple representations in DEFLATE stream format, and there is no way to determine which one was originally used. Can anyb...
I have an array of 10345 bytes, I want to compress the array and then decompress, kindly suggest me the compression algorithm which can reduce the size of array. I am using c language, and the array is of unsigned char type.

Inspired by this and this topic about the fact that Google's homepage isn't validating, just because of performance issues (1 byte less saves gigabytes of data traffic a day), I wondered:
What is the smallest possible HTML-file that renders Google Homepage correctly in at least one browser?
By Google Hompage I mean the most simple vers...
Is there a simple way to create a zip archive in C++? I'm writing a GPL app and I looked in to minizip but it seems too complicated. Is there a simple library to do this? I already have the files on the disk, I just want to make a zip from them.

Does anyone know of a Java implementation of the PPMD compression algorithm?
I have not been able to find a Java implementation, but there is a C# implementation at http://users.senet.com.au/~mjbone/Compression.html that is about 4k lines of code. I'm not going to ask if anyone feels like porting it to Java...

Is there any deflate implementation for Silverlight 3 that is compatible with the .NET one?
Or, barring that, is there any similar compression algorithm available for both .NET and Silverlight I can use?
I tried this LZW example: http://paste.lisp.org/display/12198, but unfortunately it doesn't work very well.

I am implementing run length encoding using the GZipStream class in a C# winforms app.
Data is provided as a series of strings separated by newline characters, like this:
FFFFFFFF
FFFFFEFF
FDFFFFFF
00FFFFFF
Before compressing, I convert the string to a byte array, but doing so fails if newline characters are present.
Each newline is...

Is there a table that gives the compression ratio of a jpeg image at a given quality?
Something like the table given on the wiki page, except for more values.
A formula could also do the trick.
Bonus: Are the [compression ratio] values on the wiki page roughly true for all images? Does the ratio depend on what the image is and the siz...

Is it possible to exclude <pre> tags from this code igniter compression hook? I don't understand regular expressions well enough to not break my page. I have tried, but it always jacks up the output.
EDIT: This CodeIgniter Compression hook strips all unecisary white space and formatting from the code in order to compress the output. ...
