9//! Minimal binary codes.
10//!
11//! A minimal binary code with upper bound *u* > 0 (AKA [truncated binary
12//! encoding](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Truncated_binary_encoding)) is an
13//! optimal prefix-free code for the first *u* natural numbers with uniform
14//! distribution.
15//!
16//! There are several such codes, and the one implemented here is defined as
17//! follows: let *s* = ⌈log₂*u*⌉; then, given *x* < *u*, if *x* <
18//! 2*ˢ* − *u* then *x* is coded as the binary representation of *x*
19//! in *s* − 1 bits; otherwise, *x* is coded as the binary representation of *x*
20//! − *u* + 2*ˢ* in *s* bits.
21//!
22//! The supported range for *u* is [0 . . 2⁶⁴).
23//!
24//! See the [codes module documentation](crate::codes) for some elaboration on
25//! the difference between the big-endian and little-endian versions of the
26//! codes.
