Encode the sequence of values by the rice code

Question

Response to the following problem:

Encode the following sequence of 16 values using the Rice code with 7 = 8 and one split sample option.

32,33,35,39,37,38,39,40,40,40,40,39,40,40,41,40

For prediction use the previous value in the sequence

yˆ_i = y_i-1

and assume a prediction of zero for the first element of the sequence.
