compression.lempel_ziv_decompress

One of the several implementations of Lempel-Ziv-Welch decompression algorithm https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lempel%E2%80%93Ziv%E2%80%93Welch

Functions

compress(→ None)	Reads source file, decompresses it and writes the result in destination file
decompress_data(→ str)	Decompresses given data_bits using Lempel-Ziv-Welch compression algorithm
read_file_binary(→ str)	Reads given file as bytes and returns them as a long string
remove_prefix(→ str)	Removes size prefix, that compressed file should have
write_file_binary(→ None)	Writes given to_write string (should only consist of 0's and 1's) as bytes in the
