The method according to claim 16 which further comprises: further first retrieving a sufficient continuing portion of said continuum of said variable bit length encoded first-words (said ENCODED OPERATORS) as contains at least one or more, next contiguous, complete encoded first-word beyond said firstly retrieved one complete said encoded first-word; locating the beginning of said further firstly retrieved at least one more, next contiguous, complete encoded first-word as said fixed bit length (length=X.sub.1, fixed X.sub.1) first-word first-field (said REFLEX FIELD) plus said variable bit length (length=Y.sub.1 bits, variable Y.sub.1) first-word second-field (said OPERATOR INDEX field) of said firstly retrieved one complete said encoded first-word beyond said previously located beginning of said firstly retrieved one complete said encoded first-word; and continuing with said commencing wherein said beginning of said firstly retrieved one complete said encoded first-word is now said located beginning of said further first retrieved one complete encoded first-word; whereby said variable bit length of said firstly retrieved one complete said encoded first-word has located the beginning of said further firstly retrieved, at least one more, next contiguous, complete encoded first-word; whereby SINCE said locating is in respect of said fixed bit length (length=X.sub.1, fixed X.sub.1) of said first-word first-field (said REFLEX field) plus said variable bit length (length=Y.sub.1 bits, variable Y.sub.1) first-word second-field (said OPERATOR INDEX field), and SINCE said variable bit length (length=Y.sub.1 bits, variable Y.sub.1) of said first-word second-field (said OPERATOR INDEX field) is greater than or equal to the number one (1) minus said fixed bit length (length=X.sub.1, fixed) of said first-word first-field (said REFLEX field) (Y.sub.1 1-X.sub.1), THEN the shortest said variable bit length of said firstly retrieved one complete said encoded first word is the minimum sum of the minimum said fixed bit length (minimum=X.sub.1, fixed) first-word first-field (said REFLEX field) plus the minimum said variable bit length (minimum Y.sub.1 =1-X.sub.1) first-word second-field (said OPERATOR INDEX field) (minimum sum=X.sub.1 +(1-X.sub.1)=1) is one (1) bit.

21. When a multiplicity of fixed-bit-length digital informational words are information theoretically encoded, such as characteristically transposes different said fixed-bit-length informational words into bit strings of different lengths, as a continuum of information theoretically encoded digital information, wherein said continuum has the dictionary definition of something absolutely continuous and homogeneous of which no distinction of content can be affirmed except by reference to something else, a method of decoding said continuum of informatiion theoretically encoded digital information back to said original multiplicity of informational words, said decode method characterized in that there is a bidirectional, or reflex, interaction between said continuum of information theoretically encoded digital information and that something else, called a REFLEX DESCRIPTOR, by which the distinction of content within said continuum will be affirmed, said method comprising: commencing with the first bit of said continuum of information theoretically encoded digital information, taking a fixed set number of bits, called a REFLEX FIELD, as an address; utilizing said address to index a uniquely associated word called a REFLEX DESCRIPTOR which contains a first quantity called LENGTH and a second quantity called DATA; firstly utilizing said first quantity, LENGTH, to generate zero when said first quantity is less than or equal to said fixed set number of bits, elsewise, when said first quantity is greater than said fixed set number of bits, to identify and to extract, as a third quantity called INDEX, from said continuum of information that number of bits beyond said fixed set number of bits by which said first quantity exceeds said fixed set number of bits; adding said second quantity, DATA, to said third quantity, INDEX, to formulate a sum of requisite length which is the first one of said multiplicity of fixed-bit-length digital informational words; secondly utilizing said first quantity, LENGTH, to locate, irrespective of said fixed set number of bits, that bit position within said continuum upon which decode of a next subsequent one of said multiplicity of digital informational words will commence, said bit position being identified as said first quantity plus one beyond that said bit upon which the current decode did commence; returning to said commencing step until the entirety of said continuum of information theoretically encoded digital information has been decoded into said multiplicity of fixed-bit-length digital informational words.
