sliceread-0.1.3 has been yanked.
sliceread provides basic utilities to read from slices in a linear fashion, into other slices and numerical primitives.
Additionally, the crate provides additional functions to map and access the data in a easier fashion.
Why? Reading from a slice in a manner like this, allows you to significantly boost reading speeds compared to the Read trait; avoiding allocations and copying among other things. (if you do not want to mutate)
