Field Detail

probability

public double probability

The probability of the node.

indexInArray

public int indexInArray

The corresponding index in the pmf array of this node. If the value is -1, then this node is constructed by combining at least two probabilities.

leftChild

public HuffmanBasic.Node leftChild

The left child of the node.

rightChild

public HuffmanBasic.Node rightChild

The right child of the node.

huffmanCode

public java.lang.String huffmanCode

The huffman code of this node.

Constructor Detail

Node

public Node(HuffmanBasic.Node left,
            HuffmanBasic.Node right)

Construct the parent node given the left child and the right child.

Parameters:

left - The left child.

right - The right child.
