Consists compress and decompress function.

1. Save / Clone the above repository
2. The repository consists of a sample text file of size 715kB
3. Run the python code useHuffman.py to compress & decompress the given sample file

To run the code for compression of any other text file, edit the path variable in the useHuffman.py file.

For now, the decompress() function is to be called from the same object from which the compress() function was called, for compressing-decompressing a file (as the encoding information is stored in the data members of the object only)
