Talk:Shannon's source coding theorem
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
[edit] Reorganised/Merged
I suggest the 'Shannon noiseless source coding theorem' article be merged with this 'Source coding' article.

- this is a separate large article. maybe a summary of this article might be appropriate on the source coding page - strong disagree

Merge carried out, having first:
- renamed article from source coding to Shannon's source coding theorem
- redirected source coding to point to data compression
- moved material on variable length codes to variable length codes
- removed tag suggesting merger with entropy encoding
Some more clean-up to do, to blend the presentation of the two theorems more closely. (Detailed editing not yet started).
