That's fantastic looking !!!

I think a got a Data_Compressor algorithim worked out , but I got to write a de-compressor first to see if its working..
It seems to compress *.exe's to roughly 1/3 size and ascii text files to about 1/2 size.


I'll probably have the de-compressor written by tomorrow.

The problem I'm having right now is the compressor is way too slow...1/2 hour to compress 230KB *.bmp

@Dodicat

I found the bottle neck , it just happens to be your Base2() converter function you posted a couple pages back..
I Don't know how to speed it up.?

I got to speed up my own code before it as well, as it takes about 5 mins to run through a 230 KB *.bmp.

Its the testing of segments to see if they have already occurred, so you have to loop through the file and loop through that, to see if it already occurred. so it loop and loops and I have to figure a better way to convert the output to binary.

Hi Albert.
Have you got zlib.a in your lib folder?
http://sourceforge.net/projects/fbc/fil ... Libraries/
Here are two files, a compressor and a decompressor.
Compile each to .exe and use drag and drop to compress/uncompress.

I've tested with many files including .exe.
I've yet to figure out how to compress a folder containing some files.

[albert]

@Dodicat

The reason I was working on compression was , that if you can outdo the others , you could get to be quite rich. Like Phil Katz and PKZIP / PKUNZIP , would become ARZIP / ARUNZIP

If I actually succeeded in a compression technique , I don't know if I would post it here , out of altruism , or even use FB to generate the *.exe , maybe I would use C or C++ and keep the source code as a company secret.

Maybe I would post it here though?

[dodicat]

I'll have a think about speeding up base2.
There is another method, but I have forgotten it.

Altruism - (your code is for the benefit of others at your expense) --. But you want to get rich?
Altruism is most definitely out.

[albert]

@Dodicat

It was a failure , compression equaled file size , and I couldn't get it to uncompress to the right bytes.
About 2/3 of the file was correct but then I got a bunch of garbage at the end..

It was just a 2 byte SAR configuration.

@Dodicat

It looks like a nuclear reactor...

My compressor, in trying to make a dictionary , the size of it , is about half the file size, so I haven't got a working model yet.
It seems like I got a lot more brain storming to do.

I thought of making a bar chart of the data +-16 , and saving it as a small *.bmp's , I don't know if that would compress or not.

@Richard

How do they do the integer mul in the processor in 1 clock cycle? is it just a lookup table?

[dodicat]

Hi Albert
Hope all is well with Richard, he's been gone a while.
Hi Dafhi
I'm following your asm tutorial, but I'll not post there lest I muck up the continuity.

[dafhi]

don't worry about it. continuity is handled from first post.
like your 3d basket.
