FRAR

Project Description

FRAR is a C++ application designed to efficiently compress and decompress text files using the Huffman Tree algorithm. This project explores file compression techniques and their implementation in C++.

Features

• Compression: Compress text files with high efficiency that could reach 52% using the Huffman Tree algorithm.
• Decompression: Decompress previously compressed files back to their original text format.

How to Use

Running the Application

1. Launch the Application: Open the project and run the executable or run through visual studio.

2. Choose an Operation:

   • Compress a File: Press c
   • Decompress a File: Press d

Compression

1. When prompted, press c to select the compression option.
2. The file should be at the same path as the project.
3. Enter the filename with its .txt extension that you wish to compress.
4. The application will compress the specified file and save the compressed version.

Decompression

1. When prompted, press d to select the decompression option.
2. Enter the filename with its .com extension that you wish to decompress.
3. The application will decompress the specified file back to its original text format.
