My suggestion:
function(a){a+='ħ';for(var b={},c=256,d,e,f=d=e=[],g,h;g=a[d++];)b[g]=g.charCodeAt(),e=1+b[h=e+g]?h:(f.push(b[e]),b[h]=c++,g);return f}
Please note that there is 135 chars but 136 bytes due to ħ.
e = 1 + b[h = e + g] ? … : …
fixes "\0FOOBAR" bug:
b[h=e+g]
is presumably non-negative. After adding 1 we get positive value («true») if operand was a number or NaN («false») if it was undefined.
Then, instead of using f.push(b[e])
twice we can just add extra «illegal» char with charCode > 255 to encoded string that in conjuction with previous char(s) cannot be in dictionary. And then drop the push of last char.
'ħ' is picked randomly as a tribute to Max Planck :)
@subzey : you rock !
The only thing left is to make enough room to write g = a.charAt(d++);
instead of g = a[d++];
!
function(h){for(var a=h+'ħ',b=[],c=0,d=b,e=b,f=b,g;g=a.charAt(d++);)b[g]=g.charCodeAt(),e=1+b[h=e+g]?h:(f[c++]=b[e],b[h]=c+255,g);return f}
139 chars, 140 bytes, works perfectly well in IE6, IE8, IE9 (didn't test in native IE7)
Optimizations applied:
c
is initially 0, not 256, used post-decrement instead of pre-decrementpush
changed to index-based assignment as ifc
starts with 0, index is always equal toc
- Rearranged variables declaration and «illegal» char appending, stripping one byte
@subzey : Wonderful ! IE7 should not be a problem. I did something like that to say goodbye to push
but gave up on it in the end.
Well done guys, this truly is awesome
@kbjr : thanks !
