Compressing a file does give you some information about the amount of
redundancy in that code, but that might not be the redundancy you care
about (e.g. using longer identifiers will give you higher compression
ratios, but that's usually not what's considered "redundancy in code").
Also, it's not immediately clear how to go from this to finding the
actual redundancy.
