Description
This PR adds two fundamental data transformation algorithms to the
compressioncategory. These algorithms are commonly used as pre-processing steps in modern lossless compression pipelines:In line with the repository's goal, these implementations are intended for learning purposes, demonstrating key components used in formats like
bzip2.This contribution adds the following new files:
src/main/java/com/thealgorithms/compression/BurrowsWheelerTransform.javasrc/main/java/com/thealgorithms/compression/MoveToFront.javasrc/test/java/com/thealgorithms/compression/BurrowsWheelerTransformTest.javasrc/test/java/com/thealgorithms/compression/MoveToFrontTest.javaBoth implementations are accompanied by comprehensive JUnit tests to ensure correctness and handle edge cases (e.g., empty inputs, symbols not in alphabet).
