NewReader creates a new Reader reading the given reader.

NewWriter creates a new Writer that satisfies writes by compressing data written to w.

NewWriterLevel is like NewWriter but specifies the compression level instead of assuming DefaultCompression.

These constants are copied from the flate package, so that code that imports "compress/gzip" does not also have to import "compress/flate".

ErrChecksum is returned when reading GZIP data that has an invalid checksum.

ErrHeader is returned when reading GZIP data that has an invalid header.

The gzip file stores a header giving metadata about the compressed file.

A Reader is an io.Reader that can be read to retrieve uncompressed data from a gzip-format compressed file.

A Writer is an io.WriteCloser that satisfies writes by compressing data written to its wrapped io.Writer.
