//! Exponential Golomb codes.
//!
//! Exponential Golomb codes are a variant of Golomb codes with power-of-two
//! modulus (i.e., [Rice codes]) in which the prefix is written using [Elias γ
//! code] instead of unary code. More precisely, the exponential Golomb code
//! with parameter *k* ≥ 0 of a natural number *x* is given by ⌊*x* / 2*ᵏ*⌋ in
//! [γ code] followed by *x* mod 2*ᵏ* in binary *k*-bit representation.
//!
//! The implied distribution of an exponential Golomb code with parameter *k* is
//! ≈ 2²*ᵏ*/2*x*².
//!
//! Note that the exponential Golomb code for *k* = 0 is exactly the [γ code].
//!
//! The supported range is [0 . . 2⁶⁴ – 1) for *k* = 0 and [0 . . 2⁶⁴) for *k*
//! in [1 . . 64).
//!
//! Exponential Golomb codes are used in the [H.264 (MPEG-4)] and [H.265]
//! standards.
//!
//! [Rice codes]: super::rice
//! [Elias γ code]: super::gamma
//! [γ code]: super::gamma
//! [H.264 (MPEG-4)]: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Advanced_Video_Coding
//! [H.265]: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High_Efficiency_Video_Coding
