Create A Huffman Code Dictionary in MATLAB
Huffman coding requires statistical information about the source of the data being encoded. In particular,
the p input argument in the huffmandict function lists the probability with which the source produces
each symbol in its alphabet.
For example, consider a data source that produces 1s with probability 0.1, 2s with probability 0.1, and 3s
with probability 0.8. The main computational step in encoding data from this source using a Huffman code
is to create a dictionary that associates each data symbol with a codeword. The commands below create
such a dictionary and then show the codeword vector associated with a particular value from the data
source.
