Procedure Decoding

The decoding process works by branching through the code tree according to the rules for any binary code trees. After the decoding of each symbol the tree will be updated by the procedure previously described.

If the control character NYA appears, then the following symbol will be read using the current parameters b and r. The new symbol has also to be appended to the code tree followed by an update of the corresponding branches. The parameters b and r has to be recalculated according to the reduced number of symbols.
