That's a big part of it. jpg is short for JPEG, which is the file format for photos, and realistic paintings. So yes, it's a form of lossy compression in pictures. The more compressed it gets, the worse it looks.

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.


What is loss-less data compression?

Lossy= Is generally more effective but when opening file it loses some data. This is most noticeable in compressed pictures Lossless= Is the most common method of compression and loses none of the data


WHAT DO YOU MEAN BY DATA COMPRESSION?

Data compression refers to the process of reducing the size of a data file or dataset by encoding its information more efficiently. This can be achieved through various techniques, such as removing redundancy or using algorithms that represent data in a more compact form. The primary goal is to save storage space and decrease transmission time, making it easier to store and share large amounts of data. Compression can be lossless, preserving all original data, or lossy, where some data is sacrificed for greater size reduction.

What is a series of instructions telling a computer how to read a compressed file?

A series of instructions telling a computer how to read a compressed file is typically referred to as a decompression algorithm. This algorithm processes the compressed data, interpreting its format and reconstructing the original file by reversing the compression process. Common decompression algorithms include ZIP, GZIP, and LZ77, each designed for specific compression techniques. The computer executes these instructions to restore the file to its usable form.
