raptorq

Rust implementation of RaptorQ (RFC6330)

Recovery properties: Reconstruction probability after receiving K + h packets = 1 - 1/256^(h + 1). Where K is the number of packets in the original message, and h is the number of additional packets received. See "RaptorQ Technical Overview" by Qualcomm

Examples
