Function reed_solomon_erasure::option_shards_to_shards

pub fn option_shards_to_shards(
    shards: &Vec<Option<Shard>>, 
    start: Option<usize>, 
    count: Option<usize>
) -> Vec<Shard>

Transforms a section of vector of option shards to vector of shards.

Arguments

• start - start of range of option shards you want to use
• count - number of option shards you want to use

Remarks

Each shard is cloned rather than moved, which may be slow.

This is mainly useful when you want to convert result of decode_missing to the more usable arrangement.

Panics when any of the shards is missing or the range exceeds number of shards provided.
