ASCII files can be compressed to smaller sizes by using variable length Huffman Coding. By analyzing the different probabilities of the various symbols that occur in a given file, we can build a Huffman tree to come up with a minimal, optimized binary list of code words for these symbols.

The idea behind Huffman coding is based upon the frequency of a symbol in a sequence. The symbol that is the most frequent in that sequence gets a new code that is very small, the least frequent symbol will get a code that is very long, so that when we’ll translate the input, we want to encode the most frequent symbols will take less space than …
