| Subject: compress ratio (size of output file / size of input file) < 1 ? or does not matter |
|
|
supposed there were such a data file which leads one of the three data compress algorithms output a larger size compressed file,
are we supposed to hand over that output file as it is (larger than the original)? or we should instead give up the compressed result and either output the original uncompressed file or simply return/exit ?
Thanks! |
