Description of Change
Add a Huffman coding compression algorithm implementation to the
greedy_approach/directory. Huffman coding is a classic greedy algorithm that assigns variable-length binary codes to characters based on their frequencies, producing an optimal prefix-free code.The implementation includes:
Also adds the missing
CMakeLists.txtfor thegreedy_approach/directory and registers it in the rootCMakeLists.txt.References
N/A - new algorithm addition, no prior issue or PR.
Checklist
Notes: Adds
greedy_approach/huffman.cwith full Doxygen documentation, min-heap based tree construction, and 5 assert-based tests. Also createsgreedy_approach/CMakeLists.txtwhich was previously missing.
