Educational Decoder
|
||
|
|
===================
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
`zstd_decompress.c` is a self-contained implementation of a decoder according
|
||
|
|
to the Zstandard format specification written in C99.
|
||
|
|
While it does not implement as many features as the reference decoder,
|
||
|
|
such as the streaming API or content checksums, it is written to be easy to
|
||
|
|
follow and understand, to help understand how the Zstandard format works.
|
||
|
|
It's laid out to match the [format specification],
|
||
|
|
so it can be used to understand how confusing segments could be implemented.
|
||
|
|
It also contains implementations of Huffman and FSE table decoding.

`harness.c` provides a simple test harness around the decoder:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
harness <input-file> <output-file> [dictionary]
