Matlab Scripts for Huffman Encoding of text files

Dear all, I need a Matlab script for the Huffman Encoding of text files not from a text input(file name input) but from (character,probability) input . here is the code.

clc; clear all; k=input('Enter the file name :','s'); fid = fopen(k,'r'); F = fread(fid); img = char(F'); mx=255; [x y z]=size(img); h(1:mx)=0; disp('Histogram building phase started....'); for i=1:y iy=img(i); val=double(iy); h(val)=h(val)+1; end end disp('Probability calculating phase started...'); i=1:mx p(i)=h(i)/(x*y); j=1; for i=1:mx if(p(i)~=0) lst(j)=i; lst(j+1)=p(i); j=j+2; end [tt,mx]=size(lst); disp('sorting phase started....'); for i=2:2:mx for j=i:2:mx if (lst(i)>lst(j)) temp1=lst(i-1); temp2=lst(i); lst(i-1)=lst(j-1); lst(i)=lst(j); lst(j-1)=temp1; lst(j)=temp2; end end end disp('Building Huffman Tree.....'); fhtree1(lst,img);

thanks

Please reformat your code to be readable. If you edit and select the text and press the "code" button, then it will come out nicely.

Have you considered using sort() instead of your nested loop to sort the values ?

Do you have a question?
