Run-Length Encoding in C from Scratch - Building a File Compressor
Live-coded a RLE-based file compressor in C without any libraries - just raw file I/O and bit manipulation. Covers the encoding scheme, handling edge cases (runs longer than 255 bytes). In the end, I compress and decompress a real, uncompressed image file, and reduce its size from 2.9 MB to just 37 KB.
