Sorry to argue with you, but in Re: having fun with RE - was: Re: One Zero variants_without_repetition you said:

P.S.: the beauty of such a compression, ... and secondly, i can compress the compressed file until i reach it's minimal length (<= 26).

Which indicates that you believe that you could take any file, compress it, and then compress the compressed file, and then compress that ... until you reach a file <= 26 bytes.

And that is the very definition of 'infinite compression'. And it is impossible.

Examine what is said, not who speaks -- Silence betokens consent -- Love the truth but pardon error.

In the absence of evidence, opinion is indistinguishable from prejudice.

Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
