    Burrows Wheeler Transform BWT Preparing Data for Efficient Compression

    Introduction Data compression is not only about reducing file size it is about transforming data into a form that can be encoded more efficiently. One of the most elegant examples of this idea is the Burrows–Wheeler Transform (BWT). Unlike traditional compression algorithms that directly reduce data size, BWT is a reversible data transformation that…
