This METAPOST package allows to draw binary Huffman trees from two arrays : a string one, and a value one. It is based on METAOBJ package which provides many tools to build trees in general.
This package is in beta version, do not hesitate to report bugs, as well as requests for improvement.
To allow for easier feedback and bug reporting, this repository has a mirror repository on github: https://github.com/chupinmaxime/huffman
huffman is on the ctan and can be installed via the package manager of your distribution https://www.ctan.org/pkg/mpchess.
To install huffman with TeX live, you will have to create the directory texmf directory in your home.
user $> mkdir ~/texmfThen, you will have to place the .mp files in the
~/texmf/tex/metapost/huffman/.
Once this is done, huffman will be loaded with the classic
input huffman
These two systems are unknown to the author of MPchess, so we refer to their documentation to add local packages: http://docs.miktex.org/manual/localadditions.html
huffman depends on the packages METAPOST: metaobj and, if MPchess is not
used with LuaLaTeX and luamplib, latexmp.
