Description

A non-interactive presentation of Huffman coding as a method for compression. Without speed control, this may go too fast for a student's first introduction to Huffman coding. It also makes no mention of generating a lookup table for actually using the tree.

Evaluation

Strengths: clear presentation using hash tables/trees without the overhead of discussing them. Weaknesses: no ability to start/pause animation except at predefined intervals
