python3-reedsolo - 1.7.0-1+b4 main

A pythonic universal errors-and-erasures Reed-Solomon Codec to protect your
data from errors and bitrot. It includes a pure Python implementation and a
speed-optimized Cython/C extension.
.
This is a burst-type implementation, so that it supports any Galois field
higher than 2^3, but not binary streams. Burst errors are non-random errors
that more often happen on data storage mediums such as hard drives, hence this
library is better suited for data storage protection, and less for streams
noise correction, although it also works for this purpose but with a bit of
overhead (since it works with bytes only, instead of bits).
.
Based on the wonderful tutorial at Wikiversity, written by "Bobmath" and
"LRQ3000". If you are just starting with Reed-Solomon error correction codes,
the Wikiversity article is a good beginner's introduction.
