Abstract
This paper introduces a new way of prefix code translation. It helps to finish the whole translation by mapping once (only one comparison instruction is needed for getting the length of prefix code), and returns the original data and the length of prefix code element. The decoding time is only about four times as many as the time accessing original data directly.
