The primary aim is to ensure optimal efficiency in terms of <\/span><b>storage<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> and <\/span><b>transmission<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> while maintaining the integrity of the information.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Data coding is also employed to <\/span><b>compress information<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, reducing file size or optimizing the bandwidth necessary for transmission. Exercise caution! Data coding is a concept quite distinct from compression. The former refers to a process by which <\/span><b>information is converted into a different format<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, for instance, from decimal to binary.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">On the other hand, compression seeks to <\/span><b>reduce the volume of data<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> by eliminating redundancies.
