### Shamir's Secret Sharing Usage Examples

Source: https://docs.rs/blahaj/0.6.0/src/blahaj/lib.rs.html

Demonstrates basic secret sharing and recovery in both standard and no_std environments.

```rust
use blahaj::{ Sharks, Share };

// Set a minimum threshold of 10 shares
let sharks = Sharks(10);
// Obtain an iterator over the shares for secret [1, 2, 3, 4]
# #[cfg(feature = "std")]
# {
let dealer = sharks.dealer(&[1, 2, 3, 4]);
// Get 10 shares
let shares: Vec<Share> = dealer.take(10).collect();
// Recover the original secret!
let secret = sharks.recover(shares.as_slice()).unwrap();
assert_eq!(secret, vec![1, 2, 3, 4]);
# }
```

```rust
use blahaj::{ Sharks, Share };
use rand_chacha::rand_core::SeedableRng;

// Set a minimum threshold of 10 shares
let sharks = Sharks(10);
// Obtain an iterator over the shares for secret [1, 2, 3, 4]
let mut rng = rand_chacha::ChaCha8Rng::from_seed([0x90; 32]);
let dealer = sharks.dealer_rng(&[1, 2, 3, 4], &mut rng);
// Get 10 shares
let shares: Vec<Share> = dealer.take(10).collect();
// Recover the original secret!
let secret = sharks.recover(shares.as_slice()).unwrap();
assert_eq!(secret, vec![1, 2, 3, 4]);
```

--------------------------------

### Generate and Recover Secret (std)

Source: https://docs.rs/blahaj/0.6.0/blahaj

Use this example when the standard library is available. It shows how to set a minimum threshold, generate shares for a secret, and then recover the original secret from those shares.

```rust
use blahaj::{ Sharks, Share };

// Set a minimum threshold of 10 shares
let sharks = Sharks(10);
// Obtain an iterator over the shares for secret [1, 2, 3, 4]
let dealer = sharks.dealer(&[1, 2, 3, 4]);
// Get 10 shares
let shares: Vec<Share> = dealer.take(10).collect();
// Recover the original secret!
let secret = sharks.recover(shares.as_slice()).unwrap();
assert_eq!(secret, vec![1, 2, 3, 4]);
```

--------------------------------

### Usage example for Sharks struct

Source: https://docs.rs/blahaj/0.6.0/blahaj/struct.Sharks.html

Demonstrates how to use the Sharks struct to set a threshold, generate shares for a secret, and recover the original secret from those shares.

```rust
// Set a minimum threshold of 10 shares
let sharks = Sharks(10);
// Obtain an iterator over the shares for secret [1, 2, 3, 4]
let dealer = sharks.dealer(&[1, 2, 3, 4]);
// Get 10 shares
let shares: Vec<Share> = dealer.take(10).collect();
// Recover the original secret!
let secret = sharks.recover(shares.as_slice()).unwrap();
assert_eq!(secret, vec![1, 2, 3, 4]);
```

--------------------------------

### Generate and Recover Secret (no std)

Source: https://docs.rs/blahaj/0.6.0/blahaj

This example is for environments where the standard library is not available. It requires a random number generator, like `rand_chacha`, to be seeded and provided for share generation.

```rust
use blahaj::{ Sharks, Share };
use rand_chacha::rand_core::SeedableRng;

// Set a minimum threshold of 10 shares
let sharks = Sharks(10);
// Obtain an iterator over the shares for secret [1, 2, 3, 4]
let mut rng = rand_chacha::ChaCha8Rng::from_seed([0x90; 32]);
let dealer = sharks.dealer_rng(&[1, 2, 3, 4], &mut rng);
// Get 10 shares
let shares: Vec<Share> = dealer.take(10).collect();
// Recover the original secret!
let secret = sharks.recover(shares.as_slice()).unwrap();
assert_eq!(secret, vec![1, 2, 3, 4]);
```

--------------------------------

### Get TypeId of self

Source: https://docs.rs/blahaj/0.6.0/blahaj/struct.Sharks.html

Retrieves the `TypeId` of the current instance. This is a standard method for trait objects.

```rust
fn type_id(&self) -> TypeId
```

--------------------------------

        let poly = random_polynomial(GF256(1), 3, &mut rng);
        assert_eq!(poly.len(), 3);
        assert_eq!(poly[2], GF256(1));
    }

    #[test]
    fn evaluator_works() {
        let iter = get_evaluator(vec![vec![GF256(3), GF256(2), GF256(5)]]);
        let values: Vec<_> = iter.take(2).map(|s| (s.x.clone(), s.y.clone())).collect();
        assert_eq!(
            values,
            vec![(GF256(1), vec![GF256(4)]), (GF256(2), vec![GF256(13)])]
        );
    }

    #[test]
    fn interpolate_works() {
        let mut rng = rand_chacha::ChaCha8Rng::from_seed([0x90; 32]);
        let poly = random_polynomial(GF256(185), 10, &mut rng);
        let iter = get_evaluator(vec![poly]);
        let shares: Vec<Share> = iter.take(10).collect();
        let root = interpolate(&shares);
        assert_eq!(root, vec![185]);
    }
}
```

### Usage of Share for secret distribution and recovery

Source: https://docs.rs/blahaj/0.6.0/blahaj/struct.Share.html

Demonstrates generating shares from a dealer and recovering a secret from serialized share bytes.

```rust
use blahaj::{Sharks, Share};
use core::convert::TryFrom;

// Transmit the share bytes to a printer
let sharks = Sharks(3);
let mut rng = rand_chacha::ChaCha8Rng::from_seed([0x90; 32]);
let dealer = sharks.dealer_rng(&[1, 2, 3], &mut rng);

// Get 5 shares and print paper keys
for s in dealer.take(5) {
    send_to_printer(Vec::from(&s));
};

// Get share bytes from an external source and recover secret
let shares_bytes: Vec<Vec<u8>> = ask_shares();
let shares: Vec<Share> = shares_bytes.iter().map(|s| Share::try_from(s.as_slice()).unwrap()).collect();
let secret = sharks.recover(&shares).unwrap();
```

let sharks = Sharks(10);
// Obtain an iterator over the shares for secret [1, 2, 3, 4]
# #[cfg(feature = "std")]
# {
let dealer = sharks.dealer(&[1, 2, 3, 4]);
// Get 10 shares
let shares: Vec<Share> = dealer.take(10).collect();
// Recover the original secret!
let secret = sharks.recover(shares.as_slice()).unwrap();
assert_eq!(secret, vec![1, 2, 3, 4]);
# }
```

--------------------------------
