'''Run-length encoding''' ('''RLE''') is a simple kind of data compression, in which a run of consecutive equal data values is replaced by a code indicating the run length and the data value.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
RLE can be effective for some types of data, or as part of a more sophisticated algorithm, but by itself it is a poor general-purpose compression algorithm.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
RLE is used in countless [[Graphics#Raster Graphics Formats|raster graphics]] formats.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Related formats ==&lt;br /&gt;
Algorithms and compressed data formats based primarily on RLE:&lt;br /&gt;
* [[NeXT 2-bit RLE]]&lt;br /&gt;
* [[PackBits]]&lt;br /&gt;
* [[RLE90]]&lt;br /&gt;
* [[Run-length colour encoding]]&lt;br /&gt;
* [[ThunderScan compression]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Note that most RLE implementations are used in only one format, and are not documented in a separate article.&lt;br /&gt;
