Claim 5:
6. A method for low-distortion compaction of floating-point numbers, comprising the steps of:
receiving a data set for encoding, the data set comprising one or more floating-point numbers;
scanning the data set to identify the one or more floating-point numbers;
for each identified floating-point number in the data set:
pre-encoding the floating-point number into a binary string representation;
replacing the floating-point number with its binary string representation in the data set to create a pre-encoded data set;
creating an index and logically link the binary string representation with the index, wherein the index indicates the binary string represents a floating-point number in the pre-encoded data set; and

sending the pre-encoded data set to a data deconstruction engine;
receiving a pre-encoded data set;
deconstructing the pre-encoded data set into a plurality of sourceblocks; and
compacting each of the plurality of sourceblocks by assigning a codeword to a reference code associated with each of the plurality of sourceblocks.
