This project was written by me as part of the seminar data compression held during winter semester 2020/21 in Frankfurt. A lot of the inspiration and the understanding comes from Prof. Dr. Edmund Weitz who gave a lecture on the discrete cosine. He also developed a similar (awesome) webseite, which was a huge help and inspiration for me.
