2. Data compression - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_compression

   Data compression. In information theory, data compression, source coding, [ 1] or bit-rate reduction is the process of encoding information using fewer bits than the original representation. [ 2] Any particular compression is either lossy or lossless. Lossless compression reduces bits by identifying and eliminating statistical redundancy.

3. 7-Zip - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/7-Zip

   Website. www .7-zip .org. 7-Zip is a free and open-source file archiver, a utility used to place groups of files within compressed containers known as "archives". It is developed by Igor Pavlov and was first released in 1999. [ 2] 7-Zip has its own archive format called 7z, but can read and write several others.

4. ZIP (file format) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ZIP_(file_format)

   Yes. ZIP is an archive file format that supports lossless data compression. A ZIP file may contain one or more files or directories that may have been compressed. The ZIP file format permits a number of compression algorithms, though DEFLATE is the most common.

5. XZ Utils - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/XZ_Utils

   Decompression speed is higher than bzip2, but lower than gzip. Compression can be much slower than gzip, and is slower than bzip2 for high levels of compression, and is most useful when a compressed file will be used many times. [3] [4] XZ Utils consists of two major components: xz, the command-line compressor and decompressor (analogous to gzip)

6. List of archive formats - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_archive_formats

   File extension(s) [a] MIME type [b] Official name [c] Platform [d] Description .br application/x-brotli Brotli: all Brotli is a compression algorithm developed by Google for textual web content, and typically achieves higher compression ratios than other algorithms for this use case.

7. bzip2 - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bzip2

   Yes. bzip2 is a free and open-source file compression program that uses the Burrows–Wheeler algorithm. It only compresses single files and is not a file archiver. It relies on separate external utilities for tasks such as handling multiple files, encryption, and archive-splitting. bzip2 was initially released in 1996 by Julian Seward.
