Detailed explanation-1: -By compressing a file, data takes up less space, and files can be sent and received a lot more quickly.
Detailed explanation-2: -Benefits of compression A compressed file takes up less storage space, and smaller files are faster to move from one place to another since they take up less space, and it’s the demand for moving large files, such as videos, over the Internet, that compression is used for these types of files.
Detailed explanation-3: -Compressed files contain fewer bits of data than uncompressed files. Therefore, it would take one-tenth time to transmit a compressed text file as it would take to transmit that same uncompressed file. That’s why compressing larger files before sending them over the Internet can help you save considerable time.
