Encoding and decoding of the Bech32 format

Bech32 is an encoding scheme that is easy to use for humans and efficient to encode in QR codes.

A Bech32 string consists of a human-readable part (HRP), a separator (the character '1'), and a data part. A checksum at the end of the string provides error detection to prevent mistakes when the string is written off or read out loud.

The original description in BIP-0173 has more details.
