Huffman Code Generator

Programmers use Huffman codes for encoding files to save up space.

A PDF to the Huffman tree is available in this repository here.

A guide to Huffman trees in given in the Book by Elliot B. Koffman.

Here is your problem statement.

The user will input a string in your program.

1. convert the string to a lowercase string
2. map all the characters of the lowercase string to their 8-bit binary representation.
3. show the full 8-bit binary encoded string of the user's input string.
4. map all the characters of the lowercase string to the huffman tree codes for the characters and space.
5. show the full variable length encoded string of the user's input string.
