final BigInteger v = BigInteger.valueOf(123456);
final String encoded = Crockford32.encode(v);
assert encoded.equals("3RJ0");
final BigInteger recovered = Crockford32.decode(encoded);
assert recovered.equals(v);
final BigInteger recoveredAgain = Crockford32.decode("3-rjo");
assert recoveredAgain.equals(v);Releases in the 0.x series are the Wild West. Anything can change between releases--package names, method signatures, behavior, whatever. But if you like it as it is right now, all the tests pass so just use it at its current version and have fun.
The next version series will be 1.x. Every release in that series will be backward compatible with every lower-numbered release in the same series except possibly in the case of 1) a bug fix or 2) a correction to an underspecification.
An incompatible change to the interface, behavior, license, or anything else after the 1.x series is published will result in a new series, such as 2.x.
This work implements the codec described by Douglas Crockford at [http://www.crockford.com/wrmg/base32.html]. Mr. Crockford's lectures and books on Javascript are highly entertaining and informative. Oh yeah--and he invented JSON.
