File compression uses software algorithms to reduce file size by reducing the bit-rate of a file. Lossy compression takes it a bit further and lowers the quality of thr file to make it even smaller.
Lossy compression is commonly used for media files, but would not be appropriate for other types of files.

D- What is the difference between lossy and lossyless compression?
Lossless compression recreates a compressed file as an identical match to its original form. While lossy compression can't be used to compress anything that needs to be reproduced exactly.
Are PNG files lossy or lossless?
Lossless. Compression techniques do not remove detail from the image.

Is a PICT a type of Lossy or Lossless compression file?
Pict files can use 2 different forms of compression. 1- RLE Compression (the default) is lossless. 2- JPEG compression (only on some systems/graphics programmes) is lossy.

What is it called when compression data some of the data is lost yet can represent the original close enough?
When compressed data that is subsequently decompressed does not exactly match the original, yet it is considered close enough to the original to be usable, that algorithm is called a lossy compression. Contrast that with lossless compression, where the decompressed version exactly matches the original. Lossy compression is useful in audio and video, where exactness is not critical, while lossless compression is useful in data streams that must be preserved exactly. The lossy compression algorithm often results in more compact compressed results.
