About

Implements Base31 encoding and decoding, which is useful to represent large integers in a short, case-insensitive, alphanumeric format.

The difference to Base36 is that in Base31 certain characters that are often misread (0, 1, i, I, l, L, o, 0) are not used.

Motivation

1. I used kmanley's excellent base31 golang lib for a while now to generate readable serial numbers
2. ported the library to rust in process of learning rust
