RLE全称（run-length encoding），翻译为游程编码，又译行程长度编码，又称变动长度编码法（run coding），在控制论中对于二值图像而言是一种编码方法，对连续的黑、白像素数(游程)以不同的码字进行编码。游程编码是一种简单的非破坏性资料压缩法，其好处是加压缩和解压缩都非常快。其方法是计算连续出现的资料长度压缩之。-Run-length encoding (RLE) is a very simple form of data compression in which runs of data (that is, sequences in which the same data value occurs in many consecutive data elements) are stored as a single data value and count, rather than as the original run. This is most useful on data that contains many such runs: for example, simple graphic images such as icons, line drawings, and animations. It is not useful with files that don t have many runs as it could greatly increase the file size.
