Write a program for encoding images using the Rice algorithm. Use eight options,

including the fundamental sequence, five split sample options, and the two low$-$entropy

options. Use J $=16.$ For prediction use either the pixel to the left or the pixel above.

Encode the Sena image using your program. Compare your results with the results

obtained by Huffman coding the differences between pixels
