// Module: encoding_efficiency.tern
// Purpose: Comparing Binary Encoding vs 2-bit Trit Packing
// Author: RFI-IRFOS

// Benchmarks the storage and information density of ternary.

fn compare_encoding() {
    // 1. 64 trits can represent 3^64 unique states.
    // 2. 64 binary bits can represent 2^64 unique states.
    
    // 3^64 is ~3.4 x 10^30
    // 2^64 is ~1.8 x 10^19
    
    // Ternary (3-state) has ~1.58 bits of information per trit.
    // Packed as 2-bit BET (Binary-Encoded Ternary), 64 trits need 128 bits.
