Description

Adds a library for compressing numerical arrays while preserving fast random access. It is useful in scientific computing, simulations, visualization, and data workflows where large floating-point arrays need smaller storage or faster movement.

Compression settings affect precision and data quality. Developers should choose error bounds deliberately and validate results before using compressed arrays for scientific or engineering decisions.
