Encoding
The bitcore.Encoding
namespace contains utilities for encoding information in
common formats in the bitcoin ecosystem.
Base58
Two classes are provided: Base58
and Base58Check
. The first one merely
encodes/decodes a set of bytes in base58 format. The second one will also take
the double sha256
hash of the information and append the last 4 bytes of the
hash as a checksum when encoding, and checking this checksum when decoding.
BufferReader & BufferWriter
These classes are used internally to write information in buffers.
Varint
The bitcore implementation uses a quite complex way of compressing integers representing the size of fields.
