TL;DR: A method is developed of optimizing a code for data compression by run length encoding and the performance of this code (13.20 compression factor) is compared with the theoretically attainable compression based on the information content of the probability distribution of run lengths.
Abstract: A method is developed of optimizing a code for data compression by run length encoding. The performance of this code (13.20 compression factor) is then compared with the theoretically attainable compression based on the information content of the probability distribution of run lengths.
