What Is Lossless Source Coding?

1.	What Is Lossless Source Coding?
Answer» A data compression technique, which reverts an EXACT COPY of original file. Lossless Source Coding is used for COMPRESSING TEXT files in modems. Lossless Source Coding is a building block for designing lossy compressors. Lossy compression is implemented for images, sound and video files for effective data compression. MANY compression techniques have a lossless mode. The lossless source coding involves a sequence of fixed length symbols. Each of these symbols is easily manipulated independently.
