Huffman Encoder

Overview

This Python script implements Huffman coding, a method for lossless data compression. Huffman coding assigns variable-length codes to input characters, with shorter codes assigned to more frequent characters.

Features

• Huffman tree construction for efficient encoding and decoding.
• Calculation of average code length, entropy, and efficiency.
• Interactive input to analyze Huffman coding for any given text.
