Hello,
I wanted to know which one of the following compress methods are the
most effective for text and code files :

zip, tar, tar.gz, gz. Which one?

And another question is how to implement the compression in C#?

Thank you!

C# has built in System.IO.Compression library all the functions you
need, I believe it uses the gz method. Do a google search for
System.IO.Compression and see what you can find.
