    can be used to change the width of the text field, in characters. The default is 22, which fits the search bar with the default box width. Note: this is a bare number with no units. search-button-label can be used to change the text on the search button. The default is "Search". style can be used to style the box with inline CSS.

  4. Shannon coding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shannon_coding

    In the field of data compression, Shannon coding, named after its creator, Claude Shannon, is a lossless data compression technique for constructing a prefix code based on a set of symbols and their probabilities (estimated or measured).

  5. Wikipedia:Tips/Using the prefix in searches - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/.../Using_the_prefix_in_searches

    To search for articles in the encyclopedia, simply enter the topic you want to search for in the search box. To see all the pages related to a topic (I'll use the ancient Greeks as an example), type in the text box: Ancient Greece, and click Search. Another way to get a listing of articles on the topic would be to type Category:Ancient Greece.

    Say the search box is given two words.The search starts with two index lookups, and the two results are combined with a logical AND. But before they are displayed as search results, they must all be assigned a final score before the top twenty (listed on the first page) can be displayed, and they must be formatted with snippets and highlighting.

    In computer science, a trie (/ ˈ t r aɪ /, / ˈ t r iː /), also known as a digital tree or prefix tree, [1] is a specialized search tree data structure used to store and retrieve strings from a dictionary or set.

  8. Huffman coding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Huffman_coding

    In computer science and information theory, a Huffman code is a particular type of optimal prefix code that is commonly used for lossless data compression.The process of finding or using such a code is Huffman coding, an algorithm developed by David A. Huffman while he was a Sc.D. student at MIT, and published in the 1952 paper "A Method for the Construction of Minimum-Redundancy Codes".

  9. Shannon–Fano coding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shannon–Fano_coding

    Unfortunately, Shannon–Fano coding does not always produce optimal prefix codes; the set of probabilities {0.35, 0.17, 0.17, 0.16, 0.15} is an example of one that will be assigned non-optimal codes by Shannon–Fano coding. Fano's version of Shannon–Fano coding is used in the IMPLODE compression method, which is part of the ZIP file format ...
