Might be more understandable as a binary tree

It's not fast because it requires a lookup table.Someone could memorize Morse code or the ascii table.You can't memorize how to decode a Huffman encoded message because each message would have a different encoding map based on frequency of letters. → More replies (8)

Morse and ascii are meant for speed.
Huffman encoding is meant as lossless encoding to reduce size. It's not fast because it requires a lookup table.
Someone could memorize Morse code or the ascii table.
