error.rs

//! The `error` module in the `uqoin-cor`e library defines a structured approach
//! to error handling within the Uqoin cryptocurrency protocol. It introduces a 
//! comprehensive enumeration of error kinds that represent various failure 
//! scenarios encountered during protocol operations, such as coin validation, 
//! transaction processing, and block verification. By encapsulating these error
//! conditions, the module facilitates robust error management and propagation
//! throughout the system.

/// Represents specific categories of errors that can occur within the Uqoin 
/// protocol:
/// * CoinInvalid: Indicates that a coin fails validation checks.
/// * CoinNotUnique: Denotes duplication of coin identifiers.
/// * CoinTooCheap: Signifies that a coin's value is below the acceptable 
/// threshold.
/// * TransactionInvalidSender: The sender information in a transaction is 
/// invalid or cannot be verified.
/// * TransactionEmpty: The transaction contains no operations or data.
/// * TransactionBrokenGroup: The transaction group structure is malformed or 
/// inconsistent.
/// * TransactionBrokenExt: Extension data is corrupted or invalid.
/// * BlockBroken: The block structure is corrupted or fails integrity checks.
/// * BlockOrderMismatch: The sequence of blocks does not follow the expected 
/// order.
/// * BlockValidatorMismatch: The block's validator does not match the expected
/// validator.
/// * BlockPreviousHashMismatch: The previous hash reference in the block does
/// not match the actual previous block's hash.
/// * BlockOffsetMismatch: The block's offset value is incorrect or
/// inconsistent.
/// * BlockInvalidHash: The block's hash does not meet the required criteria.
/// * BlockInvalidHashComplexity: The block's hash does not satisfy the 
/// complexity requirements.
/// * Other: A catch-all for unspecified or miscellaneous errors.
