.NET Compression Utility

This C# code provides a .NET compression utility for compressing and decompressing files.

How to Use

The CompressionUtils class contains two static methods:

• CompressFile(string inputFilePath, string outputFilePath) takes an input file path and an output file path, and compresses the input file into the output file.
• DecompressFile(string inputFilePath, string outputFilePath) takes an input file path and an output file path, and decompresses the input file into the output file.

To use this code, simply include the CompressionUtils.cs file in your project, and then call the appropriate method with the input and output file paths.

// Compress a file
CompressionUtils.CompressFile("input.txt", "output.txt");

// Decompress a file
CompressionUtils.DecompressFile("compressed.txt", "decompressed.txt");

Implementation Details

The CompressFile method reads the input file, creates an output file, and then uses a DeflateStream with CompressionLevel.Optimal to compress the input file and write the compressed data to the output file.

The DecompressFile method reads the compressed input file, creates an output file, and then uses a DeflateStream with CompressionMode.Decompress to decompress the input file and write the decompressed data to the output file.

Note that this implementation uses the DEFLATE algorithm for compression, which is a widely used algorithm that is supported by many file formats and compression tools.
