哈弗曼树与哈弗曼编码简介

树和哈夫曼编码。哈夫曼编码是哈夫曼树的一个应用。哈夫曼编码应用广泛，如JPEG中就应用了哈夫曼编码。 首先介绍什么是哈夫曼树。哈夫曼树又称最优二叉树，是一种带权路径长度最短的二叉树。所谓树的带权路径长度，就是树中所有的叶结点的权值乘上其到根结点的 路径长度（若根结点为0层，叶结点到根结点的路径长度为叶结点的层数）。树的带权路径长度记为

WPL= (W1*L1+W2*L2+W3*L3+...+Wn*Ln)，N个权值Wi(i=1,2,...n)构成一棵有N个叶结点的二叉树，相应的叶结点的路径长度为Li(i=1,2,...n)。可以证明哈夫曼树的WPL是最小的。

哈夫曼编码步骤：

一、对给定的n个权值{W1,W2,W3,...,Wi,...,Wn}构成n棵二叉树的初始集合F= {T1,T2,T3,...,Ti,...,Tn}，其中每棵二叉树Ti中只有一个权值为Wi的根结点，它的左右子树均为空。（为方便在计算机上实现算法，一般还要求以Ti的权值Wi的升序排列。）
二、在F中选取两棵根结点权值最小的树作为新构造的二叉树的左右子树，新二叉树的根结点的权值为其左右子树的根结点的权值之和。
三、从F中删除这两棵树，并把这棵新的二叉树同样以升序排列加入到集合F中。
四、重复二和三两步，直到集合F中只有一棵二叉树为止。

简易的理解就是，假如我有A,B,C,D,E五个字符，出现的频率（即权值）分别为5,4,3,2,1,那么我们第一步先取两个最小权值作为左右子树构造一个新树，即取1，2构成新树，其结点为1+2=3，如图：

虚线为新生成的结点，第二步再把新生成的权值为3的结点放到剩下的集合中，所以集合变成{5,4,3,3}，再根据第二步，取最小的两个权值构成新树，如图：

再依次建立哈夫曼树，如下图：

其中各个权值替换对应的字符即为下图：

按照左子树0，右子树1，遍历整棵树，就可以将各叶子节点对应的编码写出来：

所以各字符对应的编码为：A->11, B->10, C->00, D->011, E->010

霍夫曼编码是一种无前缀编码。解码时不会混淆。其主要应用在数据压缩，加密解密等场合。

C语言代码实现：

#include 
#include 


#define MAXVALUE  10000  /*定义最大权值*/
#define MAXLEAF     30  /*定义哈夫曼树叶结点个数*/
#define MAXNODE    MAXLEAF*2 -1
#define MAXBIT      100 /*定义哈夫曼编码的最大长度*/
