1/ 📝 In this thread and blog post, we dive into idiomatic code in Noir, focusing on data parsing today.

Let’s get started 🧵👇

Trustless verifiable data infrastructure powered by zero-knowledge proofs

3/ 🔄 In ZK circuits, encoding and decoding are interchangeable. Decoding is often preferred due to efficiency and cheaper computation. 

4/ 💡 "Fragment" stores references to the original string, offset, and length of the parsed input. We can generalize "Fragment" to support any array.

5/ 🔨 Typical flow:

—  Decode and slice data.
— Calculate cryptographic primitives.
— Convert and compare data.

2/ 🔍 Parsing data from formats like Base64, RLP, JSON, and verifying against cryptographic primitives is a common routine. Key steps:

— Compute cryptographic primitives.
— Decode data to verify correctness. 

ZK projects do this daily.
