Question

1. HuffmanTree(char[] a, int[] f) This is a constructor that builds a Huffman tree based on a and f, where a is an array of characters to be encoded and f is an array of frequencies corresponding to the characters in a. For example, if a[3] = ’D’ and f[3] = 43, that means the frequency of ’D’ is 43. Note: You are not going to build a random Huffman tree. Instead, you will build a rightheavy tree, which means, whenever you try to combine two sub-Huffman trees to form a new tree, the left-child of the new root always points to the node with higher frequency. In such a way, the right-child intends to have more nodes. As the result, this strategy will build a tree with the right side heavier than the left side.

2. public void printCodeWords() This method prints out all codewords in the Huffman tree. The order of printing the codewords doesn’t matter, but they are required to be printed in the following format: Huffman Codes: 000:E[69](127) 0010:H[72](61) 0011:S[82](63) ..... The list indicates that 000 is the Huffman code for E, [69] indicates the ASCII value of character E, and (127) is the frequency; same to characters H and S.

3. public String encodeToStr(String text) This method will return a 0-1 String using the Huffman code. For example, if the argument is "EHS" and we are using the same codes for this assignment to code it, the method should return "00000100011". 4. public String decodeFromStr(String codeString) The reverse of the function above. Using the same tree with the argument "00000100011", the method will return "EHS".

This is my HuffmanTree class.

I'm not getting the correct output as expected.
