How do I represent binary numbers in C++ (used for Huffman encoder)?
问题 I am writing my own Huffman encoder, and so far I have created the Huffman tree by using a minHeap to pop off the two lowest frequency nodes and make a node that links to them and then pushing the new node back one (lather, rinse, repeat until only one node). So now I have created the tree, but I need to use this tree to assign codes to each character. My problem is I don't know how to store the binary representation of a number in C++. I remember reading that unsigned char is the standard
