Levenshtein coding
Levenshtein coding is a universal code encoding the non-negative integers developed by Vladimir Levenshtein.
The code of zero is "0"; to code a positive number:
The code begins:
To decode a Levenshtein-coded integer:
The Levenshtein code of a positive integer is always one bit longer than the Elias omega code of that integer. However, there is a Levenshtein code for zero, whereas Elias omega coding would require the numbers to be shifted so that a zero is represented by the code for one instead.
