// Decoder is implemented by types that require custom RLP
// decoding rules or need to decode into private fields.

// The DecodeRLP method should read one value from the given
// Stream. It is not forbidden to read less or more, but it might
// be confusing.
type Decoder interface {
    DecodeRLP(*Stream) error
}

// Decode parses RLP-encoded data from r and stores the result in the
// value pointed to by val. Val must be a non-nil pointer. If r does
// not implement ByteReader, Decode will do its own buffering.
//
// Decode uses the following type-dependent decoding rules:
//
// If the type implements the Decoder interface, decode calls
// DecodeRLP.
//
// To decode into a pointer, Decode will set the pointer to nil if the
// input has size zero or the input is a single byte with value zero.
// If the input has nonzero size, Decode will allocate a new value of
// the type being pointed to.
//
// To decode into a struct, Decode expects the input to be an RLP
// list. The decoded elements of the list are assigned to each public
// field in the order given by the struct's definition. If the input
// list has too few elements, no error is returned and the remaining
// fields will have the zero value.
// Recursive struct types are supported.
//
// To decode into a slice, the input must be a list and the resulting
// slice will contain the input elements in order.
// As a special case, if the slice has a byte-size element type, the input
// can also be an RLP string.
//
// To decode into a Go string, the input must be an RLP string. The
// bytes are taken as-is and will not necessarily be valid UTF-8.
//
// To decode into an integer type, the input must also be an RLP
// string. The bytes are interpreted as a big endian representation of
// the integer. If the RLP string is larger than the bit size of the
// type, Decode will return an error. Decode also supports *big.Int.
// There is no size limit for big integers.
//
// To decode into an interface value, Decode stores one of these
// in the value:
//
//  []interface{}, for RLP lists
//  []byte, for RLP strings
//
// Non-empty interface types are not supported, nor are bool, float32,
// float64, maps, channel types and functions.
