in thread Data compression by 50% + : is it possible?

That's for one run of 100 lines.

For much larger runs it is around 62.8%

    FWIW I created a Huffman code for 50**2 pairs to improve the compression. (So called "blocking" )

    It only saved something like 1% of the average code length, which seems to indicate that the code is already very close to the optimal entropy limit.

    See German-WP for theoretical background.
