Instantiates, captures, and filters encoder data.

This function implements Task 2, a task which is somewhat sillier than Task 1 in that Task 2 won't shut up. Also, one can test the relative speed of Python string manipulation with memory allocation (slow) vs. that of manipulation of bytes in pre-allocated memory (faster).
