Decoder

public Decoder(int maxCodewordLength)

Method Details

decode

public long decode(long code)

Description copied from interface: Codec.Decoder

Decodes a sequence of bits.

If the first codeword appearing in the sequence is the escape codeword, this method returns −1 and the actual symbol must be retrieved by reading Codec.Decoder.escapedSymbolLength() further bits.

This method assumes that the first bit of the code is the leftmost bit (i.e., the bit of index Codec.Coder.maxCodewordLength() − 1).

Specified by:

decode in interface Codec.Decoder

Parameters:

code - a sequence of bits.

Returns:

the symbol associated with the first codeword appearing in the sequence, or −1 if the codeword is an escape.

numBits

public long numBits()

Description copied from interface: Codec.Decoder

The number of bits used by this decoder.

Specified by:

numBits in interface Codec.Decoder

Returns:

the number of bits used by this decoder.
