Hufflepuffman Encoding

Not the bravest, smartest, or most cunning of huffman encodings, but loyal through thick and thin.

How to run

- Compile
- Run with command line args
    - arg0: "encode" or "decode"
    - arg1: path to file to be encoded or decoded
    - arg2: path to newly generated binary or decoded file
- Profit

Old version (see Old/huffman.hs)

- Kept for side-by-side speed comparisons.
- If compiled with ghc, -O2 flag recommended.
- Runs ~22 times slower than refactored version (with -O2).
