Data Compression
Software Development and Engineering Practices
Data compression is the technique of reducing the size of digital files or data streams by encoding information more efficiently, using algorithms like ZIP, JPEG, or MP3 compression. It is used by software engineers and system administrators to save storage space and speed up data transmission over networks. Compression can be lossless, preserving all original data, or lossy, sacrificing some detail for smaller file sizes.
