Subject: Send code table in LZW
Date: Sunday, 11 Oct 2020, 03:12:09

I am struggling to see why we have to build the rest of the table as we go in the decoding process of LZW.  Why not just send the complete table we developed when encoding? Wouldn't this avoid the KwKwK problem in the first place?

The '?' marks and everything about it seems to overcomplicate things to my understanding.

Thank you!
