A method for compressing small computer files through the use of reduction of values and removal of unnecessary bits in the compressed computer file. The method examines data in arrays or groups that share certain characteristics and evaluates each of a plurality of compression methods for each array. Compression methods include, without limitation, Mode Compression, Strip Zeros compression, Delta From Base compression, Difference from Last compression, and Ratio Compression. It chooses the best compression method for each array. The method also applies certain compression techniques to all data and uses varying field widths throughout to minimize the compressed file. It results in substantially reduced file sizes compared to traditional compression methods for small computer files.
