the new algorithm will consist of combining Huffman and Shannon-Fano coding system, which will be later translated in C language. Any proposals???

the the combined Huffman and Shannon-Fano code is called the Huffman-Shannon Fano coding(HSF). It encodes like Huffman and decodes similarly to Shannon. Combining both gives quicker encoding and decoding. Please send a Huffman and a Shannon algorithm.
