👉 Precompression, also known as compression or lossy encoding, is a process of converting data into smaller units (usually bits) that are easier to work with and store. This can be done by reducing the size of each unit relative to the original size, typically by using algorithms such as Huffman coding or Lempel-Ziv-Winograd code. Precompression is used in various applications where space efficiency is essential, such as for compression of audio signals, video files, or documents with large amounts
