uncompress

 

 

Overview

The uncompress function uses the extremely fast LZRW1 decompression algorithm, by Ross Williams, to convert previously compressed ByteVector into the original much larger ByteVector.

Usage

Use the uncompress function to revert to the size of the original input Byte Vector, String or Symbol argument before the its compression.

 

Syntax

Expression:

(decompress input)

Arguments Name Type Description
Argument:inputByteVector The much smaller Byte Vector after compression.

Returns:

A ByteVector with the original contents before compression.
