Answer:
It we were asked to develop a new data compression tool, it is recommended to use Huffman coding since it is easy to implement and it is widely used.
Explanation:
The pros and the cons of Huffman coding
Huffman coding is one of the most simple compressing encoding schemes and can be implemented easily and efficiently. It also has the advantage of not being patented like other methods (e.g. arithmetic codingfor example) which however are superior to Huffman coding in terms of resulting code length.
One thing not mentioned so far shall not be kept secret however: to decode our 96 bit of “brief wit” the potential receiver of the bit sequence does need the codes for all letters! In fact he doesn’t even know which letters are encoded at all! Adding this information, which is also called the “Huffman table” might use up more space than the original uncompressed sentence!
However: for longer texts the savings outweigh the added Huffman table length. One can also agree on a Huffman table to use that isn’t optimized for the exact text to be transmitted but is good in general. In the English language for example the letters “e” and “t” occur most often while “q” and “z” make up the least part of an average text and one can agree on one Huffman table to use that on average produces a good (=short) result. Once agreed upon it doesn’t have to be transmitted with every encoded text again.
One last thing to remember is that Huffman coding is not restricted to letters and text: it can be used for just any symbols, numbers or “abstract things” that can be assigned a bit sequence to. As such Huffman coding plays an important role in other compression algorithms like JPG compression for photos and MP3 for audio files.
The pros and the cons of Lempel-Ziv-Welch
The size of files usually increases to a great extent when it includes lots of repetitive data or monochrome images. LZW compression is the best technique for reducing the size of files containing more repetitive data. LZW compression is fast and simple to apply. Since this is a lossless compression technique, none of the contents in the file are lost during or after compression. The decompression algorithm always follows the compression algorithm. LZW algorithm is efficient because it does not need to pass the string table to the decompression code. The table can be recreated as it was during compression, using the input stream as data. This avoids insertion of large string translation table with the compression data.
Answer:
Probably "compress", but these days the common answer is "upload to cloud".
Explanation:
Compressing the files is an easy way to reduce their size, unless most of the size is in already compressed, high-entropy formats (like mp3, jpeg or mp4).
The common compression format is .ZIP - you've probably seen it countless times, but other ways like RAR, 7Z are also popular, while Linux users mostly deal with tar.gz, tar.bz2 or tar.xz
On the other hand, the standard practice these days is to upload the presentation to a cloud service, like GSheets or Office PowerPoint 365, which gets rid of the limits of email filesize, while providing a convenient web-app way to view the presentation without downloading (and it doesn't clutter their inbox space or hard drives)! Alternatively, one other way to email any large file (not just a presentation) includes uploading it to some service like DropBox, GDrive or anything similar.
Answer:
Tell him he could get kicked out of school and it can possibly show up on his record and lessen his chances of finding a job since no one will trust him. He should just focus and get his grades up instead of risking everything and "taking the easy way out".
Explanation:
That's B.

I believe the answer is False or I may be wrong
