- I suggest the following book:
- Mark Nelson - The data compression book
- M&T Books 1991
- I have found this book referred on usenet, and bought it; it is
- a very clear, exaustive book about compression, about 600 pages
- full of code. It comes with floppies containing the source code;
- the book is PC oriented, but the code is ANSI C and I did not
- have problems porting the code to Unix-Amiga-Vax. I don't have
- the book here, so I cannot quote the ISBN or the price; but I
- liked it very much. It covers Huffmann coding of various flavors,
- Lempel-Ziv coding of various flavors, data lossing compression
- (jpeg) and a lot of others things.
