How many times can a file be compressed?
问题 I was thinking about compression, and it seems like there would have to be some sort of limit to the compression that could be applied to it, otherwise it\'d be a single byte. So my question is, how many times can I compress a file before: It does not get any smaller? The file becomes corrupt? Are these two points the same or different? Where does the point of diminishing returns appear? How can these points be found? I\'m not talking about any specific algorithm or particular file, just in
