// print-lzw-example.go prints a worked example discussed in std/lzw/README.md,
// based on three implementations of a simplified core of the LZW algorithm.
// Simplifications include assuming LSB-first, 8 bit literals, no clear codes,
// no full tables and that the input is given in terms of a code stream, not a
// bit stream.
//
// The implementations are designed for ease of studying, and for e.g. a
// minimal diff between the suf1 and sufQ implementations, and are not
// optimized for performance.
//
// Usage: go run print-lzw-example.go
//
// You can also play with the code (e.g. modify Q and re-run) online:
// https://play.golang.org/p/1aLC_XHZzoA
