Introduction

 In our increasingly digital world, where data flows seamlessly through networks, fills vast
storage repositories, and powers the applications we use daily, efficiency becomes
paramount. Imagine a universe where every piece of information, from a simple text
document to a high-definition video, occupies vast amounts of space, slowing down
transfers and straining network bandwidth. This is where the art of data compression
comes into play.
 Think of it as the difference between carrying a backpack filled with individual bricks
versus carrying that same weight in a neatly compacted, compressed form. Data
compression performs this digital alchemy, allowing us to transport, store, and retrieve
information with greater speed, economy, and overall efficiency
