Abstract
A coding apparatus, a program and a data processing method capable of attaining a high speed and a reduction of a computation amount in coding processing is provided, wherein coding portions for performing a left shift operation on a range and a lower limit value until the range exceeds a predetermined value and performing coding in accordance with the lower limit value before performing the left shift operation comprise a bit position specifying portion for specifying a bit position indicating a first logic value being closest to the MSB in a range; a shift amount specifying portion for specifying a shift amount immediately before the range exceeds a predetermined value by a left shift operation based on the bit position; a judging portion for judging whether there is a free space exceeding the shift amount in a predetermined bit length of extended region data added to the MSB side of the lower limit value, wherein bit data is carried from the lower limit value by the left shift operation; and an extended data coding portion for generating coding data of data stored in the extended region data by the left shift operation when there is not a free space.
