Description |
Visualization of Huffman compression. The user can provide a string from which frequencies are shown as a bar graph. The visualization leaps to an already built Huffman tree. The tree is used to build the encoding table. While the encoding process is not shown, we get to see statistics of its result. Decoding is shown using the Huffman tree. |
||||
Evaluation |
The visualization has an unfinished feeling about it. It took a while to figure out that the empty applet had to be clicked. The frequency bars have different widths that depend on the widths of the corresponding letters. Building the encoding table only shows the table after all paths in the tree have been traversed. The tree however is not visible anymore. Encoding phase is not shown but with statistics. Decoding is too fast to follow. |
