The hacspec std library
The hacspec standard library contains a host of functions, type generators and methods that define the base objects manipulated in classic cryptographic primitives.
Methods in the standard library can be divided into three categories:
- The
not_hacspec
methods whose signature and body does not belong to the hacspec fragment of Rust. They should not be used in hacspec code, but can be used as helpers for e.g. testing. - The
unsafe_hacspec
methods whose signature belongs to hacspec but not the body. These methods can be used in hacspec programs but their body is part of the trusted codebase. - The
in_hacspec
methods whose signatures and bodies belong to the hacspec fragment of Rust. These can be used safely in hacspec programs.
