Abstract
The present disclosure generally relates to an encoding scheme, and more specifically to a stable encoding scheme that is both variable-length and order-preserving. The present disclosure further describes a decoding scheme to decode and encoding generated by the encoding scheme. The encoding scheme may be parameterized by a single parameter k which remains constant across encoding and corresponding decoding operations. The output encodings generated by the encoding scheme are variable-length while maintaining order.
